Yep me you need to use Raw Linseed oil on bats as it dries slower

Not sure then mate. Probably get a professional opinion. Then again the simple option is just buying some from an actual cricket shop!

No use in spending extra money just because it says cricket oil.....

Do not use boiled Linseed oil, RAW only. I repeat, DO NOT USE BOILED LINSEED OIL.

You can pick up a small container of raw from many places, shouldn't cost much more than £3 and will last for a good few bats.

or similar. Your local DIY superstore should have some in.

£3 for 500ml, will probably outlast you........

But yes, only use RAW linseed oil. Boiled has extra additives etc which make it unsuitable.
