A little goes a long way. Longer drying time but chemical free and has a pleasant nutty odor. Finish is about as good as it gets using tung oil

Used it for its food safe feature. Seems to be a great quality product. Wish the shipping wasn't so costly tho.

Purchased the tung oil as a finish to an outdoor cedar planter I made. It worked great and left the wood with a beautiful color. It went on well - used a paintbrush. Applied 2-3 coats. It does take a while to soak in and dry out. The planter has only been outdoors a few weeks now so can't comment on the long term durability of the product, but I'm happy with it so far!

Gives a wonderful finish to wood and doesn't have an awful smell. Really easy to work with and shipping was fast, the product came well packed with the bottle of oil in a sealed bag to prevent spillage

I have never been a handy sort of guy, but Tung oil is so easy to use that this project was a breeze. I'm finishing six bamboo poles for use in Shibari so they will get banged around a bit, being tied together and such. I sanded lightly with 320 sandpaper to remove any residue and applied the first three coats with 24 hours between each. It's just a matter of applying the oil liberally, letting it set for about an hour, and wiping off the excess. The first coat absorbed completely, but successive coats seemed to leave more oil on the surface. After three coats, I waited 48 hours between the next three, and 72 hours for the last coat. The oil darkens the surface and brings out the natural beauty of the material. It takes less than ten minutes for me to apply the oil to the six, two-inch by three-foot poles, and much less than that to wipe them down later. Perhaps fifteen minutes total. With seven coats that an hour forty-five for the whole project, but spread over ten days. I used less than half of the thirty-two ounces, so I have plenty left for repairs or other pieces I may want to finish. Tung oil is non-toxic so I didn't wear any hand protection. It's non-volatile so no breathing protection, and it smells rather pleasantly like peanuts. After, it washes off easily with a little detergent. As to how durable the finish is, that remains to be seen.

Generally happy with the results although the final color to the wood bookcase was darker than I expected. The application was easy and 2 coats were sufficient for resurrecting a beautiful, very old mahogany bookcase which was revealed after multiple layers of paint had been removed. Even in a space that was not ideally ventilated, there was no problem using this product. Since the wood was very porous after stripping the paint off, I used the tung oil full strength rather than diluted. That worked well. I applied only a light second coat, also full strength but with a very soft wide brush so as not to leave brush marks. Again, this seemed to work very well on this piece. I would have given the tung oil 5 stars if it were not for the darkening of the wood and the fact that it did not go as far as I anticipated. I had to use twice as much as I would have expected for this smallish bookcase.

i refinished a very old pine floor with 1:1 mix of real milk citrus solvent and pure tung oil. one gal of each allowed for 6 coats on 500sq ft of floor with spectacular results. this was the ideal finish for my floor because i could not stay off of it for more than an hour at a time and am very sensitive to nasty chemicals. i put on a coat a day and my house smelled like orages for two weeks! i was walking on it with a dedicated pair of slippers which got a little oily but no problem. i have refinished many furniture with this same mix. since i hate the yellow tinge of pine, i dyed the floor a little with water base dye a mix of pre-mixed cherry dye and red... tip of teaspoon mixed in quart of water... the result is a really beautiful warm red tint to the floor which the tung oil finished beautifully. i never use stain on anything i do furniture or floors... water based dyes are the only way to go. tung oil cut with citrus solvent is the only wood finish worth using for any wood. non. toxic, easy to use, fool proof, easy future repairs and invisible patch repairs, supper easy to use, easy to clean after. what else do you want?! i ordered two mover solvents and another tung oil. the first set arrived in 2 days. the 2nd set was very late to arrive... i was getting ready to call. i was surprised since the first set got here so fast. still... the best price on these i have found and good service. once you use it, you will never use any other.

I used the RMP Pure Tung Oil and Real Milk Paint Citrus Solvent to revive and protect a thick decorative wood cutting board and a butcher block work bench. Both were dry and in need of a finish upgrade. First the cutting board was in good shape but dry. The first few coats were applied with about 3 parts Real Milk Paint Pure Tung Oil and 1 part RMP Citrus Solvent which is also a non toxic food grade product that smells nice in the home although I did the work in my garage until complete. The second round of oil was added the next day mixed at 50/50 as recommended by the RMP people. I called them for application advice and how to go about handling the rags and leftover product. I used sponge brushes to apply and between coats I just put the brush in a cup covered in foil and did the same with the product. As long as it's a cool location below say 80 degrees the product would not suffer or diminish in quality over a few days. After 2 days and about 6 coats the cutting board came out absolutely amazing ! The finish darkened and the grain just pops so beautifully what an amazing transformation and the feeling is silky smooth and not too oily at all yet now it no longer feels dry, Perfect !! Next I did the work bench which was in need of some oil pretty bad. I applied three coats 50/50 mix waiting a few hours or until nearly dry between coats. The next day I did the same also mixed 50/50 and the bench darkend nicely but not as much as the cutting board but again after letting dry out by the third day the bench was completely revived and the finish is much more resistant to water or other spill damage. Both the bench and the cutting board are far better looking than new. In fact I should have done this to both when they were new. I purchased the 32 oz bottle of Tung oil and I have 3/4 of the bottle left so it really goes a long way. Great Product and Great Support for the RMP people.
