The thinner the application the better. When dry apply another coat.
Turpentine when combined with linseed oil acts as a drier. This is because
it absorbs oxygen from the atmosphere more rapidly than linseed oil and aids
in its transmission to the linseed oil. Turpentine does not completely
evaporate and upon drying will form a tough coating not unlike linseed oil.

What is the ratio of turpentine to linseed oil?

Thanks
