Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
this is the worst tung oil I'v ever used, if I still had the box and packing I;d sent it back for a refund.
Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
Instructions are on point. Apply tung oil with sponge mop diluted with turpentine or citrus oil, half and half first coat, then dilute more. Less is better. Apply and wipe up excess with lint free cloth within 10 minutes as per the instructions. Get beautiful aged finish, not glossy.
Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
I purchased this product under the asumption that it was pure tung oil only to find it was a mix of oils. I was needing approx. 36 gal to put on my house. It would be helpful if the product was not labeled tung oil if in fact it is not.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
The finish with this product is superior to any other. With several coats the patina on new wood looks aged. It is a wonderful product.

This product is fast and easy to work with. Great penetration, brought out the color and grain of my ash paneling.
Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
Cleaned wooden cabinets in kitchen with tsp, touched up stain, then applied circa 1850 tung oil. Just wiped on...no need to empty cabinets, no paint brush , no sanding between coats....So easy and really superior results! I am planning to try on woodwork and more in the future...
Make sure you get the 100% tung oil...it may not be as "hardy" as some other finishes, but it sure is easy!

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Tung Oil:
I wanted to finish the mahogany of the interior of my boat with a soft, warm feel not the hard glossy look typical of gloss varnishes. Using this oil on bare wood surfaces has resulted in a wonderfully soft-to-the-touch, low sheen, moisture resistant finish as well as revealing the inherent beauty of the wood.
I have learned techniques that fill the pores easily and with each subsequent application the oil brings the wood to life.
