In the past, I have been using the current version of Watco Clear Danish Oil and have been very happy with the process and end result.  I am out of Watco and thought about trying Festool Surfix General Purpose One-Step Oil on my next project.  I am certain that many of us are very familiar with Watco.  But, has anyone here had firsthand experience with both products?

I did a search here on Surfix and Watco without success.  Your help would be appreciated.

The project is freshening two very dry 45-year old oiled walnut speaker cabinets and they do not require a heavy duty or exterior-grade finish.
 
FWIW, this reply will be relevant and irrelevant at the same time. I have used Watco Danish & Watco Teak on a teak table outdoors. The table has a cover on it all winter and during any rainfalls. The Watco Teak seemed to last a little bit longer than the Watco Danish but not much longer, the table still needed to be refinished 2-3 times per season. I tried Surfix Outdoor oil and 1 treatment will last for the full season. Does that durability advantage also apply to Surfix One Step? One could assume so, but I don't know because I've never used One Step.

The speakers aren't JBL's per chance?

I have a pair of L100A's myself that I purchased new in the early 70's with only 6 serial numbers seperating the pair. Do you have some good sources for parts?
