BRAVO!
The misinformation about Tung Oil, and other non-mainstream finishing products, that "echoes" on this and other forums is astounding.
The traditional huanghuali wood furniture were pretty much all finished with pure tung oil and have lasted for centuries - It is a wood/oil combination that is absolutely one of the most beautiful woods (off course taste is individual) and the real antiques (and raw wood for that matter is very highly prized. It is said to take more than 100 years for the wood to reach its ultimate beauty. I had to take a huanghuali desk and chair and chair apar as they were in a container (with a lot of our other antiques) that was dropped over the side in a harbor during a transatlantic move - all the hide glue dissolved and the finish obviously too a beating. However - since it is a $50K+ piece it was worth my while (after the insurance company had paid for all the "destroyed" furniture) to take it fully apart, clean up the pieces, thoroughly dry all the pieces in a controlled fashion, assemble them and then re-finish from scratch with the only finish that does the piece/wood justice - straight tung oil. Sure it is a tedious process and is best done in multiple thin coats without sanding in between and the timing such that the next coat is applied between "rubbery" and "fully cured" stages. 14 coats is what I did (over a couple of weeks) and then rubbed out in multiple stesp to a pretty nice semi-gloss sheenwith an incredibley deep and rich lustre. The piece has been evaluated by a couple of high-end antique evaluators and they put it as "fully and originally restored" at a $75k+/- price range.
The finish is very hard (obviously after the appropriate cure time) and water, alchohol resistant and shows off the wood beautifully.
Granted, this is not a restoration project for the faint of heart and the finishing process is very involved - BUT - it can produce some absolutely beautiful and pretty durable results. It is one of the finishes that draws max beauty out of many different wood species. it obviously helped me a great deal to have learned about fine antique furniturerestoration from my dad, who was one of the premier furniture restorer in Europe (talking about real antiques 200+ years old).
So - not an easy finish (in raw form) but worth it for the occasional exceptional piece. Some of the tung oil blends provide very nice results in a much more user friendly format.
