Directions
Apply with a dry, clean cotton cloth or brush over your milk painted, stained or raw wood project. Let sit for 5-10 minutes then wipe off excess. Build up coats for a more water resistant and durable finish (allow 2-3 hours between coats). Tung Oil will dry to the touch in a day or so and will reach its final hardness after a 2 week curing time.
Clean up with mineral spirits. Re-apply when surface starts to look dry. Make sure to properly dispose of rags to prevent combustion.
