  • What is tung oil?
  • Tung oil or China wood oil is a drying oil obtained by pressing the seed from the nut of the tung tree ( Vernicia fordii ). Tung oil hardens upon exposure to air (through polymerization ), and the resulting coating is transparent and has a deep, almost wet look.
  • Where did Tung oil come from?
  • The word "tung" is etymologically derived from the Chinese ͩ tóng. [ 3] The tung oil tree originates in southern China and was cultivated there for tung oil, but the date of cultivation remains unknown. [ 4]
  • How do you use tung oil diluent?
  • The traditional technique for applying pure tung oil is to dilute the oil 1:1 with solvent, then apply a succession of very thin films with a soft, lint-free cloth such as tee-shirt cotton. Diluents range from traditional spirits of turpentine to any of the new citrus-based thinners to naphtha.
  • Does tung oil wrinkle?
  • To prevent wrinkling, the oil is heated to gas-proof it (also known as "boiled"). "Tung oil finish" is often used by paint and varnish manufacturers as a generic name for any wood-finishing product that contains the real tung oil or provides a finish that resembles the finish obtained with tung oil.
