Deceptively Labelled

3 years ago
On the label it says ""Contains pure tung oil"". There are no ingredients listed so you would assume it only has tung oil. It's only in the warning label that it says it contains mineral spirits. I called Swing Paints to ask what is in it. They said it varies but generally it's a 60/40 of tung oil and mineral spirits. When I asked why it isn't clearly labelled, the guy said ""It's been labelled that way for 57 years. You can call anything tung oil"". I can't believe he said that! The product works great but I started doing this project indoors because I assumed I was working with 100% tung oil. The smell of the fumes is what made me look into this more.

It's not tung oil.

This stuff mostly consists of cheap petroleum distillates and solvents (see MSDS). It does not contain tung oil, or if so, very little. It is a wipe-on synthetic varnish, not a traditional oil finish. It would not say ""Tung oil"" on the package if the manufacturer were honest.

Instructions are on point. Apply tung oil with sponge mop diluted with turpentine or citrus oil, half and half first coat, then dilute more. Less is better. Apply and wipe up excess with lint free cloth within 10 minutes as per the instructions. Get beautiful aged finish, not glossy.

False Advertising

14 years ago
I purchased this product under the asumption that it was pure tung oil only to find it was a mix of oils. I was needing approx. 36 gal to put on my house. It would be helpful if the product was not labeled tung oil if in fact it is not.

excellent finish

The finish with this product is superior to any other. With several coats the patina on new wood looks aged. It is a wonderful product.

Product was fine. But . . .

16 years ago
The product was fine. But being awakened at 5 a.m. in the morning because of your emails is not fine. For this reason I would like to discontinue getting any correspondence from your company.
