Tung Oil

Tung oil seeps into the grain of the wood, giving it a perpetual wet look that highly accentualizes the grain of the wood, giving the wood a rich, warm color.

Tung oil provides a relatively hard surface finish that provides a water-resistant finish that is impervious to dust, alcohol, acetone (nail polish remover), and various acids such as fruit and vegetable acids (orange juice).

In its pure form, tung oil is a non-toxic and food-safe finish that is ideal for surfaces that come into contact with food.
