Actually He uses Lemon Furniture oil. There are different brands. Wal Mart sells Old English. Comes in 16oz containers for about 4 dollars.

    I use a little of both. I think that using lemom oil is a little quicker, and makes the grain pop. Dave

I've been using the Old English lemon oil.  Got it at Home Depot.  I like the way it brings out the grain.
