Interior/Original Formula Polymerized Tung Oil
Sutherland Welles’ Original Formula/Interior Polymerized Tung Oil is a beautiful, durable, and easy to use finish appropriate for a variety of interior finishing projects.
The first polymerized tung oil wood finish product that Sutherland Welles Ltd.® ever formulated uses the highest quality Tung Oil, sustainably grown and processed. Original Formula/Interior Polymerized Tung Oil creates the finest hand-rubbed, tung oil finish (can also be applied with brush) that will enhance the grain definition of your wood, while maintaining its color, without the use of volatile organic compounds (VOC exempt).
At Sutherland Welles, we believe Tung Oil is the best choice for an oil-based wood finish. Tung oil will not yellow, darken, mold or mildew like linseed oil. Tung oil will not crack or peel like polyurethane. Tung oil surpasses shellac and linseed oil in hardness, durability, and water resistance. Tung oil is 100% food-safe, once cured. Tung oil is easy to apply and repair. Our Tung Oil polymerization process improves durability, drying time, luster, and enhances grain and natural color of wood. Polymerization of Tung oil allows use to use small quantities of very low toxic chemical driers and we add VOC exempt and low VOC solvents making out Polymerized Tung Oil Wood Finishes environmentally friendly.
Did you know that a product can call itself a Tung Oil Finish and contain very little to no tung oil? All of our Polymerized Tung Oil products contain a minimum of 25% tung oil in their formulations, quite a few contain more, the higher the product’s luster the more tung oil in the formulation.
