In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: Frame finishing (Jack Hawkins)
Tung oil will work just fine. Brush it on, then go back and wipe off any excess. After 24 hours at room temperature, it should be ready for skinning. FWIW, I've never had an issue with oil bleeding through the skin on my boats, but I don't leave excess finish on the frame, either.
