Hi Lew,
I'm not sure what you mean by left out? Lid open sitting in the jar?
I've had it on timber in the home for years with no side effects...had a couple of ivory Keris hilts with age cracks in them from the heat and dry, a quick soak, wipe off the excess and in a few days open cracks are all closed up.
As I was informed years ago, be sure it is virgin cocnut oil only and the best place to buy it to ensure purity was a health food shop...
Works for me thus far
Gene, not to my knowledge
And Lofty, as previously noted in mail, congrats, a great piece.
