I applied Bora-Care to exposed structural beams and now the wood looks darker. Is this normal?

I sprayed with Bora-Care and it looks like the beams are darker in tint. They also have a sticky film on them. Will I be able to apply linseed oil?

Answer:

Wood treated with Bora-Care will appear darker than normal for a few days until the chemical dries.  Typically it only takes 24 - 48 hours for the product to dry and not be sticky.  If it is not drying within this time frame, it usually means that too much of the product was applied to the wood.  You could lightly sand the wood to remove the stickiness and then apply your finishing oil.
