to polymerized tung oil, and most have petroleum distillates added. Their pure Tung Oil will not build a gloss finish or heavy finish, but will penetrate deeply into the wood to enhance character and water resistance.This makes our pure tung oil perfect for uses such as wood bowls, counter tops, outdoor furniture, decks, wood siding, wood flooring, concrete, brick, just about any porous surface that needs an environmentally friendly product

The Tung Oil offered by Real Milk Paint, is actually a pure tung oil meaning it comes without any additives or distillates. The tung oil offered by most other companies can be anything from a thinned down varnish

USE:  The application is the same as their Pure Tung Oil. Dark Raw Tung Oil will give your work an instant antique water-resistant coating. It can be worked into the cracks and corners much like a glaze, giving the appearance of an old surface and patina. Dark Raw Tung Oil can be thinned 50% with Citrus Solvent, mineral spirits, turpentine or naphtha, which will improve penetration and drying time. The surface should be dusted to remove all loose particles. Alternatively, you can lightly sand the first coat before applying a second. Any filling or staining (water or alcohol stains work best) must be done before the oil is applied. The first coat should be a liberal one, and you can rub it over the wood with your hand using a soft rag. Allow this application to sit for 40 minutes so the oil can soak in. If it completely soaks in then apply another coat until the surface is saturated. After 40 minutes, remove any excess with clean soft rags. Check after about half an hour for any seeping, and rub this off as well. Let dry completely 24 hours between applications. Do not allow standing or puddles of oil to remain over night, these must be wiped away with rags. For dense hardwoods a solution of two parts Citrus Solvent to one part oil may be beneficial. Dark Raw Tung Oil will take 7 to 10 days for a minimum cure and 15 to 30 days for a full cure.

Citrus Natural Solvent, a paint thinner alternative, is used as a direct replacement for mineral spirits and odorless mineral spirits. Citrus Solvent can be used wherever paint thinner or mineral spirits are required as a natural, safer alternative. "Citrus Solvent" is not the same as Citrus Solve or Citri Solve or any of the host of other cleaning products on the market. 

It is however an excellent degreaser, paint thinner alternative, and can be used to replace petroleum chemicals such as mineral spirits. "Citrus Solvent" is 98% pure citrus peel oil extracted from the peel of the orange fruit. The other 2% is water. This small amount of water is emulsified in the solvent and will not raise wood grain but is released into the air as the solvent evaporates. "Citrus Solvent" does not contain any emulsions, surfactants or any other additives that paint thinner products do. Our brand of Citrus solvent is "Water Clear" and not deep orange like lower grades. "Water Clear" means that it will not add more amber color when mixed with Pure Tung Oil. Our "Citrus Solvent" does not contribute to depletion of the upper ozone or to smog like mineral spirits or paint thinner, but is gently returned to earth with the rain. Actually it is continuously being released into the air in every orange grove.Unlike paint thinner, our "Citrus Solvent" does not promote damage in the internal organs of the body when breathed but is passed through. Another advantage of Citrus Natural Solvent as a paint thinner alternative is that Citrus Natural Solvent can be easily disposed of with no threat to the environment
