I'm planning to use linseed oil as an all natural rust proofing spray on my vehicles. There's alot of talk of people having sucessfully used this as a DIY.
One of my concerns is that linseed oil is known to self ignite (soaked rags left out to dry):

Is this a concern as an underbody spray? Eg if some of the oil gets on the exhaust components?
I would also like to spray down some of the brake components (drum, calliper, lines), but would be concerned if the oil has any adverse affect on braking incase it gets on the pads.
Has anyone used linseed oil as rust proofing and can share you experiences?
