WinterBear Report post Posted October 18, 2012 Can you tell us more? There is bound to be someone here who can help. How are you applying the oil? Are you using any kind of applicator? How warm is warm? At what stage of the process are you adding your oil? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawhide Report post Posted October 18, 2012 It's been my experience that neatsfoot oil should be applied very lightly, in multiple applications. It usually takes me a couple of days to oil an article. I use clipped sheeps wool to apply it. It will soak in (usually overnight). and if applied correctly, will seem as though none was applied (this may be what you're experiencing), aside from a very slight darkening.
