India ink inside,

I colored the inside of an oak bowl with black India ink and plan on using watco danish oil on the outside. Anyone used these two together? Am I going to get any kind of reaction between them?

Thanks
 
I was just hoping that it wouldn't make it sticky or something .
I'm going to go for a rustic well used look.

Another experiment.
 
Had some India ink bleed through a crack to the outside . Am I going to be able to sand most of that off easily or does it soak in deep?
