Mineral spirits that looks like milk
Aage Rendalen
I made the mistake of buying a gallon of environmentally friendly mineral spirits. My intention was to ask the Lowe's clerk what the difference was between that and the traditional product, but the clerk must have gone on an extended break and I decided to take a chance on the new product.
Big mistake--I think. Product looks like culture milk. I tried mixing it with a bit of tung oil, which is what I had intended to use it for, and even coated a couple of bowls to try it out. Instead of floating around it, it created a slurry on top of the wood. Things improved when I wiped it down, but for now I don't know what I can use this weird mineral oil for.
Any ideas?
