Where to Use

• Tung Oil is recommended for use on interior, bare wood surfaces. Ideal for use on antiques and fine furniture.

Surface Preparation

• All surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dirt, wax, grease, glue and other contaminants or penetration and adhesion will be affected.

APPLICATION

• Apply Old Masters Tung Oil with a lint-free cloth or by hand. On large surfaces or in high humidity, thinning with mineral spirits will improve application. Up to one (1) part mineral spirits to one (1) part Tung Oil may be used; however, thinning beyond this ratio will result in noncompliance with VOC regulations.
• When the entire area has been coated, wipe off excess oil with a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If a second coat is desired, allow the first coat to dry, then rub down with 0000 steel wool.
• Repeat steps 1 and 2. Do not apply more coats than the wood can absorb.

Thinning

• Up to one (1) part mineral spirits to one (1) part Tung Oil may be used; however, thinning beyond this ratio will result in noncompliance with VOC regulations.

Coverage

• Approximately 300 to 400 square feet per gallon depending upon method of application, type and porosity of wood.

Drying Time

• Apply when air and surface temperatures are between 60° and 90°F and humidity is between 30% and 70%. At 50% relative humidity and 70°F, 100% Tung Oil will dry in approximately 8 to 12 hours.

Cleanup

• Using a cleaning solvent, such as paint thinner or mineral spirits, is recommended for cleanup. The use of paint thinners or mineral spirits may violate VOC compliancy in your area. Check with your local government agencies to ensure proper compliancy.
• To avoid spontaneous combustion during temporary storage, soak soiled rags and waste immediately after use in a water-filled, closed metal container.
