A comparison of Teak Oil, Danish Oil, and Pure Tung Oil on oak.
We make supply a range of our high quality Bestwood oils for the protection of wood. Below is a simple comparison of three of our most popular products applied on oak, highlighting the benefits and differences with each:
| OIL TYPE | DRYING TIME | FINISH | |
| TEAK WOOD OIL | Tung/Linseed Oil blend | 4 to 6 hours per coat | Sheen/Glossy |
| DANISH OIL | over 50% Tung Oil | 4 to 6 hours per coat | Low Sheen |
| PURE TUNG OIL | 100% Tung Oil | 24 to 48 hours per coat | Low Sheen |
Whether you are looking for a low sheen finish, or prefer something a little glossier. If you want a pure natural oil with absolutely nothing added, or if you prefer a quicker drying time, these oils will give you a choice.
All the oils are food and toy safe when dry. They all have a low odour when drying, and none when dry.
The Oils are all water resistant yet microporous, allowing wood to ‘breathe’ naturally, maintaining stability with its surroundings.
All products are naturally stain resistant, and resistant to food and alcohol.
All the oils will penetrate deep into wood (Pure Tung Oil will need thinning initially), feeding, protecting and nourishing dry timber from within.
We only use the natural drying oils Pure Tung Oil and First Quality Pale Boiled Linseed Oil in our Teak Oil, we don’t use artificial varnish or resins.
