    Default natural Boat oil and varnish?

    Hello all,


    I came via some Dutch websites across the following product:

    Boipin boat oil and varnish and wondered if anyone has experience with it

    Use Google translate (http://translate.google.com/#) the Dutch language (if you don't understand)

    This seems to be possible with Coelan (not natural) when water is able to get underneath the coating:
    Look at this image to see:

    The argument of Biopin oil is: It penetrates the wood much deeper than synthetic varnish and is very flexible.

    here is the website from the manufacturer:

    Curious if anyone knows the product and has worked with it.

    Many thanks in advance for any feedback,

    Have you considered Le Tonkinois - I believe some Forumites have used it and liked it. Sorry, no experience with the other products you mention.

    Indeed, I was thinking about this one, did come reasonable through the test from Classic Boat magazine.

    But of course, after reading some Dutch websites, I am very curious to see if there is anyone who actually used it.
