New oak laminated door

[marsaday]

I will be fitting 2 new doors and wondered what i should use to seal them ?

Is linseed oil any good ? Or danish oil ? Does anyone know the difference these two products will give ?

Not much difference in appearance, danish oil is what I would use.Will just darken a shade.

 

[marsaday]

yes i will go with danish, but danish is made mostly of linseed oil it seems !

Certainly on the one i have seen on the web.

Danish oil is an easy-wipe, light oil finish for all types of woods. Made from Tung oil using a special formulation, it also goes by the name of Chinese wood oil and linseed oil. It is a hard finish-drying oil which gives the wood a tough and water resistant surface.
Danish oil is an extract derived from nuts which are grown on trees mainly in China along with some specific regions of South America.
Danish oil is first processed and then blended together with synthetic resins. A number of different vegetable oils are also added to make a hard texture. Driers and other solvents are also added for better application, use and performance.

Got the doors today, but it says not to use waxes, polishes or oils.

i have to use an oil based stain or paint.
