[GreenKeys] Model 19 gears

Wondering if the linseed oil you can buy is already boiled or do you have to do it. Also wondering about the property change when boiled. This is definitely something I have to try.

    I've used boiled linseed oil on crinkle paint, makes it look
freshly painted. Works best on black but will also work on gray.
Paint on with a brush or soft cloth. Let sit for a minute or two
and then rub off the excess with a soft cloth. It takes several
hours to set up but become hard, not sticky, and keeps the "wet"
look for a very long time.
