A natural ingredient pressed from the nut of the Tung tree. Tung oil is a superior drying oil because it penetrates better than other drying oils due to its smaller molecule size as well as it provides a beautiful patina. Tung oil alone does not form a film and will water spot, mar from heat and cold and will not stand up to foot traffic. Raw tung oil also takes a long time to dry.
