White Oak

So after a year of searching for the "ideal" finish for white oak, I finally found it.

I initially finished my pieces with wax as it did not alter the look of freshly sanded oak but found the wax dried over time, requiring constant reapplication. I then went to an oil finish as it is durable but it changes the look of the wood, making it yellow, giving it a mellow, light brown complexion. This has its charm but I wanted to preserve the pale tones.
I stumbled across some new Danish pieces that I liked that said they finished with a soap finish, so I did some research and found nearly nothing pertaining to how to make/use it. I did eventually find a technique (which entailed boiling soap flakes into a paste) and experimented but could not get a result that I liked. Then I saw a piece online that said it was finished with something called "white oil". The wood nerd in me got aroused. I could not sleep. I needed to find this "white oil" After endless searching online I found nothing. For a year!
A Danish friend at the IP woodworking school had a lead on some through PP Mobler and after promised samples from them never came, the trail ran cold ( Christian, it is not your fault!). Out of the blue the other day I had a sneaky way of procuring some. There is a company in the States that sells high end modern furniture so I told them I had one of their pieces that needed refinishing and asked if they could they send me some? Reluctantly they sent me two bottles.
I tried it out today on my bench and let me tell you, it is the sh$t! It was everything I was hoping for. I have only put one coat one and these pictures do no do it justice but it suffices to say I a very happy woodworker these days.

And it is my dirty little secret.
