I'm long time user of Watco Danish Oil as an initial finish because I like the way it brings out the figure in the wood and when I wet sand the slurry fills pores nicely. I usually add shellac or polyurethane as top coat. Problem is I can't find WAtco here in San Diego. I believe new regulations prohibit it for environmental reasons.

looking for any suggestions for a replacement with similar characteristics, not necesarily complete finish solution, just something that brings out the figure, fills pores and hopefully dries relatively quickly. Thanks in advance for your help!

Best, Mike
