Danish Oil Wows

Hey Stan
you might try wiping it with lacquer thinner to take some of the danish oil off.

Oil is a penetrating finish. Try moving up to the next shade. My guess is this will be one of those accidents you are grateful for in the end. Figured wood always gains more depth when multiple shades are applied. You can also wax the finished piece with a dark wax to tone it down.

Jim’s correct. You’ll get most of it off, with diligence. Then, if you don’t want it darker, use the natural. Wait 48 hrs, reapply and wait another 48 hours before using any other surface treatment.
It’s probably not necessary, but I steel wool with 0000 between applications and use 0000 to apply Carnuba wax, buffing with a soft cloth. Slick as a baby’s behind!
