This is pure tung oil that has been given extra heat treatment to encourage polymerization and faster initial drying.
Because the treatment increases the body of the oil, this product contains 50% mineral spirits to dilute it to a workable consistency.
Polymerized tung oil provides a high-luster finish and is suitable for heavy-use items. It is an excellent choice when you want a simple finishing method that also gives you beauty and durability.

Polymerized tung oil has been heat-treated to encourage polymerization and faster initial drying. Because the treatment thickens the oil, it contains 50% mineral spirits to restore a workable consistency. Pure tung oil has no additives and is slower-drying, but is approved for food-contact items. Polymerized tung oil gives a higher-luster finish.
No. Because polymerized tung oil contains mineral spirits, it is not approved for surfaces that contact food. For bowls, cutting boards or utensils, use the 100% pure tung oil instead.
Polymerized tung oil produces a high-luster finish, making it a good choice for furniture, table tops, and other heavy-use items where a more protective, polished result is preferred over a natural matte appearance.
Apply with a brush. Because the oil already contains mineral spirits as a diluent, it is ready to use straight from the container. Brush out evenly and allow each coat to dry before applying the next. Refer to the instruction sheet included with the product for full guidance.
The number of coats depends on the application and the desired level of finish. Multiple coats build durability; the instruction sheet included with the product provides specific guidance on coat count and dry times for different applications.
