Tung Oil is an excellent interior and exterior wood finish for bare wood, countertops, flooring or Milk Painted pieces. It is one of our three food-safe finishes in our range. Our oil is unpolymerized and a natural drying oil, providing a tough, flexible and highly water-resistant coating. Perfect for furniture, countertops, interior and exterior wood surfaces. This oil provides a soft lustre with a finish that is unrivalled by many other oils. The oil saturates the wood, sealing it from moisture from within. You will never have chipping, flaking or peeling! At least 2 coats are recommended; however, the more coats, the more protection. You will want to recoat every few years as the wood starts to look dull and dry. Re-coating is simple and easy, as you will not have to sand or remove any peeling/flaking paint, just add oil, like a conditioner Tung oil can be used on all raw and properly prepped wooden surfaces. it is also a great finish to use over the top of Milk Paint, as the Milk Paint is porous, it absorbs into the paint, binding with it to provide a water-resistant, natural, tactile finish. It is also recommended for outdoor milk paint projects as it has slightly more water resistance than Hemp Oil. Thinning the oil with odourless solvent helps it penetrate the surface and speeds up the dry time. Subsequent coats can be full strength but must be wiped down after 15 minutes. Always allow ample drying time (48 hours+). Using it without the solvent, the dry time is longer. **If a solvent has been used to cut the Tung Oil, it is no longer a food-safe finish.
