    Tung Oil gives zero UV protection and very little waterproofing. It is NOT an exterior finish. It is for interior use on furniture to get a soft, antique look. :S

    I thought that the Chinese used tung oil on the stones and bricks that built the Great Wall...???
    I did use it 30 years ago on a black walnut grandfather clock and you are right it does give it a soft antique look. Have not tried it on anything else since.
    Thanks,
