Organoil Pure Tung Oil Natural Sealant for Timber & Stone

Pure Tung Oil is obtained from the seeds of a tropical treethe Tung tree (Aleurites fordii). It is a member of the spurge Family, and can also be known as China Wood Oil or Nut Oil. The seeds found in the centre of the tung fruit contain more than 50% Tung Oil, which is extracted when the seeds are ground and pressed.

Tung Oil is a drying oil, which means that it forms a solid film on contact with oxygen. When applied to timber this film is thin, tough and gorgeous, bringing out the natural beauty of the wood while protecting it. The oil is amber coloured and it imparts a deep, satin warmth to darker timbers.

Pure Tung Oil is also a most effective seal for concrete bench-tops, floors , slate/ stone, terracotta, mud brick (adobe) and other similar constructions. The finish is more suited for interior or exterior/protected use than fully exposed exterior, due to a lack of UV resistance.
