--I'm building a gun carriage, circa 1850 or thereabouts, suitable for a sailing ship. I've made it out of oak and now it occurs to me that it will have to be grubby handprint-resistant. I don't want to paint it; I want the oak to show thru whatever finish I use, but I don't want to slop something on that's so thick that it changes the thickness of the wood. Would something like Watco Danish oil finish be suitable for this? If not, does anyone have a recommendation of what I should use? TIA,
