I got my recipe from a gentleman in England,who obtained it directly from a retired Purdey stocker.Spirits of turpentine is just turpentine,i got mine from a paint store.

Spirits of wine is ethyl alcohol--do not omit this if your recipe includes vinegar!

Venice turpentine --I have used the stuff for horse hooves,and it works but I have been told that the venice turps for artists is better.Artists grade boiled linseed oil is also better,but more costly.

I have never been happy with commercial finishes,but I like slaclum oil.It takes some serious time to get a finish,but you will like the end result.
