Description INSTANTLY ADD DEPTH TO YOUR GRAIN FOR AN AGED-ANTIQUE FINISH This the same Dark Raw Tung Oil but we have mixed the Citrus Solvent in for you! The darkened color of Dark Half comes from mixing in a naturally occurring resinous hydrocarbon for color. The resin is non-carcinogenic and does not contain any PCB’s. Dark Half by The Real Milk Paint Company is water and alkali resistant. It resists marring, penetrates well, elastic and unlikely to check. Dark Half penetrates deep into the wood pores filling them up, consolidates the wood surface and builds a dark matte wood finish. It should be kept in an airtight container with minimum airspace. The Citrus Solvent used in this product is food contact safe and is derived from the skin of lemons, oranges, lime, and grapefruit. The Citrus Solvent evaporates into the air. Any time you crush and smell a plant you smell the evaporative oils, this is why there is a citrus scent to this product. FEATURES Naturally polymerizing wood finish Cures by oxidation, not evaporation Does not form a glossy finish no matter the number of coats Form a flexible waterproof finish Resists abrasion and acids Does not blister and peel (properly applied) Does not mold like linseed oil Long shelf life Does not darken with time like linseed oil FDA approved for food contact Does not go rancid 7 to 10 days partial cure, 15 to 30 days full cure Already thinned (one to one ratio) so you can use it right from the bottle, start to finish Can be mixed with any other of our Tung Oil Products (i.e. Pure Tung Oil, Dark Tung Oil, Half & Half, Outdoor Defense Oil) COVERAGE
