Making Oil Cloth

[Lightspeed]

Thanks for this MB.

I've cut and pasted it into my archive.

For what its worth, Mineral Spirit is known as White Spirit in the UK.

Essentially, in terms of recipe I guess that all need remember is that its a 50:50 mix Linseed oil: White spirit.

I have some ex mil equipment bags etc in my radio kit that were waterproofed in this way back in the 1960s. They are still un-rotted and still completely waterproof. So as you say, done properly, it lasts well.
