Review on 16 Fl Oz HOPE'S Pure Tung Oil: Waterproof Natural Wood Finish and Sealer - Enhancing SEO by Vinay Kolluri

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Now I'm loyal to tung oil.

I used this to protect the outside of some cedar beehives I've built. You look beautiful! It was easy to apply - much less fussy than Fleck. I applied two coats with 24 hours between coats. I'm a sloppy person so I love that this product is non-toxic and easy to clean. I applied it indoors as my shop is too cold to apply the oil at the moment and it didn't smell at all. I will edit this review to reflect how the hives hold up throughout the year. At this point I will definitely be using this product again. Update: I've tried another brand of tung oil and noticed that there are small patches of mildew on cedar treated with another brand. Everything processed by the Hope brand is mold-free. Based on this little test I can't say Hope is mold resistant but I can say I would personally use the Hope brand over others.

Pros
  • Easy to use. Tung Oil is a craftsman-approved natural oil that gives all fine woods a superb hand finish; Just wipe it off and let the oil dry at room temperature
Cons
  • It's fine
