Not going to mention any names, but you aren't the only oneI recently saw a picture of "Boiled linseed oil". Before that I always thought I have to buy linseed oil and boil it at home in a pot or a kettle.

Ha-ha me too!I recently saw a picture of "Boiled linseed oil". Before that I always thought I have to buy linseed oil and boil it at home in a pot or a kettle.
Yep, you could use a rag or brush.Hi Jude and all, Do you brush the Boiled Linseed Oil or spray it? If spraying, what do you use to spray with?
I definitely will use it on the Schwinn Typhoon.
Man that looks killer!Killer stripes on the rack, the monochrome scheme really works, nice patina.
I had one of them that made noise. I took it apart, couldn't find anything wrong, lubed and put back together and it was quiet! I don't know why.Woo-hooo!
Sort of an accident, but it’s done!!!!
I just started piddling on this tonight thinking I’d do the crank and relax, but one thing led to another and next thing you know, I’m 3.5 miles in on my test ride!
Made it the full 7, so, it’s clear to sell!!!
It does have a big box coaster wheel on it that whines like crazy when coasting.
Anyone got any good tricks to quiet it down?View attachment 127580View attachment 127581View attachment 127582
Yes; however, as it lost it’s tackiness, it also lost gloss.Did the BLO loose all of the stickiness? I'm getting one ready to try this weekend.
Perfect, I was trying to decide between a satin clear or BLO for this bike but I have BLO on hand so the choice is made. I didn't want it to look like a fuzzy mouse if it stayed tacky.Yes; however, as it lost it’s tackiness, it also lost gloss.
I put a super fine coat on before the photo shoot to make it glossy.
When the tackiness is gone, the sheen would be equal to a satin finish.
I've had 2 of these China clone Shimano type coasters which have been noisy, before and after disassembly and lube. Both were new. The cure is to put some miles on them. I guess some internal parts have to wear a bit...It does have a big box coaster wheel on it that whines like crazy when coasting.
