[Rhodes22-list] Interior finish

[Geoff Farrell]

Peter, the brand is Watco. Not sure what maintenance will be required in
the future. I'm hoping it will last a while because most of the interior is
protected from sun most of the time. I like the oil because it's so easy to
use. Almost like using furniture polish. I applied it with an old sweat
sock and used a rag to remove any residue.
