Used this as an alternative to pricier cedar garden box oil for a raised garden bed made from Douglas Fir (cedar cost too much). Took a bit to confirm the difference between this “pure” Tung oil and something like Watco “Tung oil finish” that includes additives for drying that aren’t food safe. This product fit the bill and is all natural and food safe. I used about 1/2 - 2/3 of this quart bottle to apply 2 coats on 30-40 linear feet of wood. Will likely use up the rest to reapply on exterior surfaces in late summer or early fall so it can cure a bit before wet/cold winter weather hits. Smells nice and uniquely nutty. Unlike other products like laquer, dutch oil varnish or paint I didn’t need a respirator to avoid headaches, nor other caustic products to clean up. This was really pleasant to work with. Applied very easily with a cloth or brush. It’s like wiping wood with olive oil or something - not super tacky or messy to clean either. Used a bit of odorless mineral spirits to clean up & wash hands, but soap & water cut most of it. Gave the light fir boards a nice even tan that looks great. Similar to, maybe slightly darker than, plain butcher block oil. Only downside is the drying/curing time - you’re supposed to wait at least 7-10 days, ideally a month or more, for it to cure & harden before exposing it to heavy sun or water. We didn’t have time for that so it was outside after only about a week and still retained a bit of the tung oil odor. Hopefully it was waterproof enough to last a while. So far it’s holding up great! Curious to see what it will look like in a year or so …

Smells amazing, all-natural and safe wood finish. Has really been breathing new and beautiful new life into some wood floors and furniture, and it seems hard to find high-quality natural products

I had used this in the hopes that it would treat the wood etching I had on a pizza board as a present. it not only was easy to use, but did a excellent job of bringing out the color of the wood and the etching, I will purchase again. It does take a long time to dry, but the wait is worth it.

Works as expected. As many state, it can take a long time for it to dry, and takes several coats, so for me it took several weeks do do multiple coats on a wood table, but trust the process. It brings out the grain in the table very well, without making it too much darker, and you can tell the surface is harder and repels water. There were some white water stained spots on our table that this product completed fixed. Good product!
