[Cob] over oiled floor

[Tys Sniffen]

So, it seems on my second coat of linseed oil, I left a few spots thicker
than I should have.  Most of the floor is dried, but these few spots are
slightly sticky and shiny.   Of course I'm worried about the final result.
Any suggestions?

 

I could just go over the whole thing with another (thinned) coat, or try to
put some thinner (we have a citrus-based one) right on those spots before I
do another. or try and heat up those spots somehow?  We don't have a
hairdryer.

 

If this was a wood piece I was oiling, I'd just sand off the sticky stuff
and go again. but I don't want to do that with my earth floor!
