I bought this tongue oil to use on my ax’s in a very wet environment. it has turned out to be a great product and works amazing. The product quickly absorbed in the wood, and when it was dry properly, it was amazing.

Disappointing

This product is very thin and watery with little to no actual tung oil as an ingredient. Will never use again.

Thank you for your review. Since this is a Tung Oil Finish, it is not a pure Tung Oil. We apologize you did not get the expected results when using for your project. If you would like to discuss your review further, please contact us directly at 1-800-523-9299 or info@cbgbrandreview.com. Sincerely, L.T., Customer Support Specialist MINWAX

Questions

Q: Can this be used on a butcher block or in place of butcher block oil.  

5 years ago
4 Answers
  • A: Unfortunately not. Pure Tong oil can be used for this purpose as it is food safe but this product is not pure Tong oil. When I purchased this product I thought it was Tong oil and was disappointed that the marketing is misleading.

Q: Can I apply this to a maple butcher block style countertop? Can I apply a polyurethane over top once this is dry?

7 months ago
2 Answers
  • A: Thank you for your question. You can use the polyurethane over the Tung Oil Finish, however you will need to sand so the urethane can adhere, which will remove some of the Tung Oil Finish. Ideally we would recommend you use one or other. Sincerely, L.T., Customer Support Specialist

Q: can you use this tung oil to seal the hardwood floor? how much does it take to seal 600-700 sq feet? and how many years will it last?

3 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: I don’t believe Tung Oil would be an acceptable flooring finish. It will not be a hard enough finish and would not put up with the abuse it would see.
