Makes sense. I have never heard of anybody saying NOT to put lemon oil on
your wood furniture, but I HAVE heard people recommend against using wax on
it. By the way, is there any reason not to use lemon oil? It would smell
nice, and would blend well with the orange peels. And is it polymerizing
or not?
