Treating galvanized standing rigging - linseed oil?

[Brion Toss]

Hello,
I've tried so many things, including fish oil, paint,Stockholm tar, boiled linsed oil, varnish, Marvel Mystery Oil, Penetrol, and many more, usually in some combination. Jst about anything is better than nothing, but if I had to do it now, I would probably stick with the recipe in the "Apprentice," for a traditional coating, but would prefer a contemporary industrial coating like Sheen-Free.
Fair Leads,
Brion Toss
