Diluted a bit with mineral spirits, and used on cured poplar. Achieved a beautiful finish. Picture is before hand rubbing.This product did just what I had hoped, looks lovelyI used the original first and it was far too orange for my taste. Mixing it with the dark toned down the orange without making it too dark.Gorgeous! This was my first time using tung oil and I couldn’t be more pleased. We used it to finish a butcher block counter we bought at Home Depot, birch, I think. It went on so beautifully. And it smelt pleasant- earthy, nutty, and a bit like soy sauce. I don’t think I’ll use anything else for finishing ever again.Wanted to add a bit of natural color and protection to my charcuterie board and this did just the trick! Even after 1 coat the warmth of the brown comes through. Great finish. Smells a bit nutty as it is drying. Wipes off easily. Absolutely would use again.Worked great. We just did one coat to get it the darkness we wanted.Great product but expensive. Not sure if I could find it cheaper anywhere else.I was trying to find a "food safe" stain for wood that had color. My local hardware store found this product on the internet and I called the company. The lady I spoke with couldn't have been more helpful with her product knowledge and recommendations. I would definitely buy a product from this company again.
