will be yellow also leh. teak oil makes it more brown infact lol

this is white pigmented stain leh. of course will turn white.

I think you guys got me wrong, I actually don't mind the wood turning colour into darker (like kena water) or brownish. I just cannot accept that IKEA Behandla Beeswax turned it into a banana colour

Please do share, just in case my teak oil turn out bad, I can get a new solution haha

so I need to find something with no linseed oil to prevent that weird yellow colour?

I am not sure, but brown sounds better to me than yellow. yellow does not look like natural wood at all

Nicora water based wood sheen.

diff oil base/type will result in a diff color. Put few more layers and it will change darker.

well yeah, yellow looks old fashion. light brown or medium brown is way better.

Hi after few more coat the colour will be darker ..

Mine like this.. basically some oil type ..

I use it for ikea table top..
Sorry can’t find after and before ..

Is depend what is the purpose and resistance you need too.
You can applied lemon oil or PU.

Most local hardware shop call PU as varnish. You can also burn the surface and sand it prior applied PU to bring out the grain.



PU will more water resistance but the surface will feel like acrylic compares to lemon oil.

This wan will turn yellowish after some yrs. And not matt white like satin.

i have one can, still new, cos its gloss (not matt) so i didnt really use it, cos not a fan of gloss.
open inside is the color of yellow cooking oil fluid. so i dont think you need years to make it yellow.

lemon oil has zero protection. PU has very good protection against scratches
