Leave it to soak in for 10 to 15 minutes, then wipe off any excess oil with a clean cloth before it becomes tacky. Allow the first coat to dry fully, then lightly key the surface and apply a second coat. Most projects benefit from 2 to 3 coats in total, with each coat left to dry before the next is applied. Allow the final coat to cure fully before items are used hard or exposed to moisture.
