Scott's Liquid Gold


I would like any comments on using this product on interior clear
redwood paneling.

Will it rejuvenate the old dry wood?

Does anyone know what is in this product?

Thanks.

I suspect the OP was thinking of the effect of oil applied to wood
rather than moisture content.

Google search: scott's liquid gold msds
Result:
Petroleum Process Oil,
CAS Number 64742-56-9,
0.5 mg/cubic meter
(meaning very dilute)

VM&P Naptha 300 ppm
(meaning not very much of that either)

The solvent was not identified,
Father Haskell stated it was
mineral oil.

Also some lemon scent was noted

Search on CAS Number 64742-56-9 returns:

Solvent-Refined Light Paraffinic Distillate

Will it "rejuvenate" old dry wood? No. Will it hurt anthing? No. It
will bring out the grain of the wood like any oil finish. Will it cure
like Boiled Linseed Oil or Tung Oil? No.

First attempt to post failed.. I think.

Murpheys is OK but for antique furniture all the pros use the same surprisi=

I used it to maintain the interior teak on my boat.

Worked well.

I'd try it.

Panelling will suck it up, so be generous when applying.

Have fun.

Moisturizing dry wood is a fallacy, wood is supposed to be dry, wet or damp
wood is unstable and can get moldy. Wood is not skin, it should be dry.

Missing from the list of Ohio breweries were Erin Brew and

Both were Cleveland breweries producing a product that bordered on
something
from a discontented horse rather than beer.

Yeah furniture should be well below 10% maybe down to 6%. 15% is like a few=
weeks off the tree. Sheesh.

That's easy. As dry as any other stable dried wood in the same
vicinity.

Mineral oil and naptha. Will need to be renewed frequently.

I do not know what is in it, but my mom used to use this product on her
panelling. To rejuvinate old wood I would (and did on a 150yr old spinning
wheel) wash it thoroughly with Murphy's Oil Soap and then treat it with
Lemon Oil NOT Lemon Polish

Is what I used and what I have used in the past with very good results.

Memories, memories ...

Does anyone besides me remember the Fehrs brewery in Louisville KY? Back
in the '50s they had a "light" beer called Fehrs Liquid Gold. I put
"light" in quotes because I don't think they called it that - I don't
think any brewery was using the term that long ago.

Just to clarify Richard's post, that's a maximum, not a minimum. There
is no minimum, but in reality the local humidity is the minimum.

My mother used it for furniture when I was a kid. It's like a brown
oil.


>Will it rejuvenate the old dry wood?

Somewhat. What is your definition of "rejuvenate"? Is the paneling
dirty or clean? If dirty, as Deb said, use Murphy's Oil Soap. It's
excellent stuff. Are you after a shiny look or a matte look? For a
shine, you might try Waterlox (tung oil finish which builds up to a
shine.) Oils will look shiny until they're completely absorbed, then
the wall will be matte.


>Does anyone know what is in this product?

http://www.scottsliquidgold.com/files/msds/MSDS%20SLG%20POUR%20ENGLISH.pdf

It's not much different from Deb's lemon oil, which is essentially
mineral oil, beeswax, some cleaner, and a lemon scent. I used to use
it on my shellacked knotty pine siding in the old house, but I cleaned
first with Murphy's.
