I saw the thread on linseed oil and just want to make one statement on safety. Any types of oils or cleaning solvents on natural fiber rags may be capable of self-ignition. They all need to be properly stored and/or disposed of: in an airtight container. This is a primary safety rule I go over in the training of spotting fire hazards on industrial sites. The fire hazard is serious and very often overlooked by reenactors and shooters.
