What is Dark Half?
Dark Half is the perfect solution for those who want the rich, antique character of Dark Tung Oil with the ease of a ready-to-use blend. By combining our Dark Tung Oil with natural, food-grade thinners - Citrus Solvent or Pine Oil - in a precise 1:1 ratio, we’ve created a product that penetrates deep into wood fibers instantly.
The darkened tone comes from a naturally occurring, non-toxic resinous hydrocarbon that enhances the wood's grain and adds visual depth without the need for artificial stains. Because it is pre-thinned, it flows easily into porous surfaces, ensuring a smooth application and a durable, water-resistant matte finish. It is an ideal choice for furniture, carvings, and even food-contact surfaces where a "time-worn" look is desired.
Key Benefits:
- Instant Aged Appearance: Adds deep color and grain definition for a beautiful antique look.
- Pre-Mixed & Ready-to-Use: No need for manual thinning; perfectly formulated for immediate application.
- Deep Penetration: The thin viscosity ensures the oil reaches deep into the wood to protect from within.
Food-Contact Safe: Uses natural solvents and non-toxic resins, making it safe for kitchen and home use.
