Ok, thank you William.
I knew about the auto ignition properties of this oil,
on rags or brushes.
My question doesn't seem to interest my dear fellow listers
Anyway
Great weekend to all

Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Linseed/Flaxseed Oil
Apologies to those who already know this. The old warning about oily rags
catching fire is true, just that petroleum oil is very unlikely to do
this so most people ignore the warnings. Natural oils are more likely to
do this, with Linseed/Flaxseed topping the list. Not only can it catch
fire, it *will* catch fire if left wadded up.
Sorry, I have no clue about using it on meteorites. Be great on wooden
handled magnet sticks.

Hi everyone
By sheer coincidence I met someone advising to use Linseed/Flaxseed oil
to protect and finish an antique wood furniture. (from my 100 years old
grandma, btw)
He also uses that oil to protect and nourish very old coins or other
old, oxidized artifacts he founds.
Has anyone used that oil for meteorites ? I am thinking about
potentially high rusting meteorites...
And... what are the outcomes ?
Thanks for any feedback
Michael B.
