It is not sold through catalogs. I have used Velvit Oil for over 10 years now. It is like a Danish oil. On most woods you get a real good penetration.

Yes, I plan on attending. It is usually the same date as the Oyster Festival here in Urbanna. This year it is not the first weekend in Nov.

I used Velvit Oil quite a bit in '96-97 when I was in the drum-making operation, it's good stuff.

Good luck on the contest, Barbara, this is a beauty!
