Never saw this before. I put some b.l.o. on my flintlock long rifle, maple stock and red stained, and its caused some damage to the finish that was originally applied.
It has the appearance of almost crazing. When I rubbed the stock after the application, I also got some stain on the rag.
I've never seen linseed react like this to any other finish. This is a very fine rifle and I'm upset that this has happened. I have no idea how to proceed to correct this short of stripping it and starting over. REALLY don't want to go there, but...
Anyone else ever had this happen with b.l.o.? Ideas are welcome.
Many thanks!
