    Waterlox?

    I bought a quart can of Waterlox. How do you guys use it in the winter time if you have a heated shop. Reading the information at their website it indicates that drying time is based on cross ventilation not temperature. I use a gas furnace to heat my shop. Do I shut the furnace off for 24 hours to dry a coat? They plainly state that 30ºF with 10% humidity will dry quicker than 90º with 90% humidity. Our low humidity will help but what to do as it plainly states it's combustible. One of the reasons I feel I don't have a lot of trouble with tool rust is the low humidity and I set my thermostat to 58ºF when I am not using the shop so there aren't a lot of temperature swings with the tools.

    Advise based on experience?
