  • Perfect finish for live edges. Excellent primer for other Tried & True products. This product can be applied over other natural oil finishes and penetrating stains. Can also be a base coat grain enhancer prior to pouring epoxy.
  • Tried & True products have infinite repairability and will last longer than a lifetime when properly maintained. No yellow plastic flakes as they age! These are 100% solids (no fillers, no solvents) so a little bit goes a very long way.

Description

Tried & True was first conceived around 1990 when a master cabinet maker in upstate New York became concerned over the amount of toxins that he was exposed to on a daily basis and thought, "How did people create pieces that last hundreds of years in a time when todays solvents and chemicals were unknown?" This question led to years of research centered around Shaker and early American woodworking and finishing, resulting in a line of products based on natural linseed (flax) oil and additives (beeswax, pine resin) that would have been available on an early American frontier with no modern processing. Every Tried & True product is made from 100% renewable ingredients and free from all solvents, has 0 VOCs, no synthetic compounds, no toxic heavy metal drying agents or anything else that could be harmful to humans, pets or planet.

    • Eating my words
Material Type: Other Size: Pint
UPDATE: Back here to edit my review because I'm thoroughly pleased with this product. It has turned out to be much more convenient and pleasant to use for my particular purpose than I imagined it would be. Because it goes on thin and in a very controlled way, I will be able to apply it in-situ inside our camper without having to remove the bench tops in need of treatment. Since I'm not going for a high-end furniture finish, I don't need to do all the prep work recommended (i.e. sanding to fine grit). I've done my first application now of T&T Danish Oil to wood that was sanded with 120 grit, i.e. it has a medium-fine prep finish. I've been able to do my application to smaller pieces inside the nice, warm house. Because I use so little, the smell, which is pleasant to me, is not overwhelming. And because I can use such a small applicator (folded cheesecloth as in the T&T demo video), there's no danger of splashing and spillage as there might be from the copious application method recommended for Brand X. One caution: at high altitude, when I removed the T&T can lid clips, the top popped off and a few drips did go flying. They were easily wiped up. T&T Danish Oil dries to a soft sheen--at least it has so far, after coat #1. The between-coat dry time of 8 hours is not unduly long. I can apply it in the morning; another coat in the late afternoon or evening; and a final 3rd coat the next morning. Then just set aside and forget for three days and I'm done. Using 0000 steel wool between coats does generate some iron filing dust, which is easily trapped in a towel or newspaper below my work. I love the non-toxic, beautiful finish T&T Danish Oil leaves; love its ease of use; love the way it buffs dry just 5 minutes after application (followed by 8 hour drying time and another steel wool buff prior to next coat). This is a great product for use in winter since I don't need a heated shop, just a little room in the house, a drop cloth and a comfortable work surface. No excessive quantity of product is needed as with Brand X, and there are no toxic fumes either. We'll sleep better in our little RV knowing we've got such a nice, natural finish under our mattresses. I do wish T&T would re-do its product application instructions video to address the problems I had with it as listed below. Original Review Below (since retracted above): After I'd researched and settled on a different, well-known Danish Oil brand for my project, my husband, doing a hasty search search of his own, suggested looking at this brand instead. When I looked it up and saw the rave reviews I thought, OK, fine, if you don't mind the price then we'll use this one if that's what you want. Unfortunately, after purchasing this Tried and True Danish Oil and then (cart before the horse) delving more deeply into the application instructions than what is visible here and on the can, I realized T&T's Danish Oil is clearly overkill for our needs. Unfortunately nowhere on this page that I've found mentions this is a non-returnable product due to flammability. So now I will have to use this product which takes twice as long and MANY more steps involving multiple applications, sanding, steel-wool buffing and double the curing time between coats, AND costs way more than I'd intended to pay. It also must be applied so incredibly thin that I'll be left with a nearly full can and nowhere to use it. Highly suggest you watch the lengthy YouTube video application instructions. I found it hard to follow as half way thru the project the amateur presenter--who does not enunciate clearly, causing the closed captions to be gibberish--switches to using a different T&T finish involving even longer curing times. This "Original" T&T finish is apparently necessary to purchase and apply *in addition* to this one if any water resistancy is desired. There is a written synopsis of this same video on the Tried & True page, so I guess this is their "official" instructional video. It took me way too much time today to watch and re-watch it while making my own outline (twice) before I sorted out that the presenter was talking about two different T&T products, each with different properties and curing times. My need is to just get a minimal finish onto a simple set of plywood bench lids that serve to support RV mattresses and are hidden from view except when accessing bench contents. Somehow I got side-tracked, and before I knew it I was "sold" on this T&T product based on its rave Amazon reviews. For what I need tho, the big-box Danish Oil brand would have been perfect. It can be applied in ONE step. consisting of a good 15-minute rubbing/soaking that is then wiped off and allowed to cure. There is an excellent independently-made instructional video on it in which the presenter gives clear, well-enunciated, simple instructions as he demonstrates the process. Cure time and project completion time with the big box brand over the T&T is halved. I have no complaints or any experience of the quality of this Tried & True Danish Oil product and have no reason to doubt it is excellent. It may be perfect for many creators. For the price, however, given my simple needs and the extended amount of time I'll now have to invest to properly apply a minimal two coats without missing any of the steps, it's just not worth the money. Unfortunately, however, even tho my can is brand-new and unopened, I'm stuck with it because of the no-return policy. ... show more

    • My favorite wood finish to use
Material Type: Other Size: Quart
I have used this Danish Oil for over two years and it is still my favorite finish to use. It is so easy to apply, almost impossible to mess it up. I use blue shop towels to apply it and would recommend that to others as well. If you sand your piece to a high enough grit, this oil will actually produce a light shine after application. I use this oil on all of my cutting boards and bowls, as well as any other food safe items I make. I recommend putting carnuba wax on for items that will be in contact with liquids often. For furniture I also add either beeswax or furniture wax over top of it for the extra durability. This oil is great for highlighting the natural wood grain in any piece you apply it to. I have yet to find any other finish that produces the look that this oil does. As long as they manufacture this oil, you can bet I will buy it and use it on my projects. ... show more

After a LOT of research and experimentation, I decided on Danish oil for my custom built redwood shelves. I absolutely LOVE the finish from Tried and True: the color richly reveals the beautiful grain from the redwood. The recipe for this particular Danish oil apparently goes back to the 18th century and hasn't changed much; a nice aspect too is that it is food safe. It even has a pleasant smell (for me, anyway: I'm weird:-). This Danish oil is easy to apply, once you've prepped your wood effectively. Carefully watch how much you apply: for example, if after 24 hours your wood is still damp, you've applied more than you need. A little goes a long way. My redwood shelves took about two to three coats, depending on the lumber: no more than that. It's also important to determine what it will do to your chosen wood: my redwood looks fantastic, but I cannot speak to other darker wood types and what the finish will look like. I'd strongly recommend ensuring you have some test pieces of your lumber (which is a good idea anyway). All in all, an excellent choice: I'd highly recommend Tried and True's Danish Oil. ... show more

Cleaning up a teak desk and credenza that had a couple decades of dirt, water rings, etc. There were definitely dry patches. I cleaned with warm water, liquid detergent (1-2 tsp) using 0000 steel wool and a rag to keep the wood from getting too wet, and to remove dirty water. After letting the pieces dry overnight, applied the oil with a *thin* layer (like you're very lightly buttering a pan). Let sit 5 min, buff with a clean cloth, and repeat in 8hrs or more. Watch their YouTube video for tips. Pics shown after 3rd coat and buffing (just on top, not doing the sides again). Results are better than expected, and would be even better had I done a complete sand of the tops to get at the large white splotches and the gouges (which looked white and are now darker). I think where this is raw wood, after finishing it be a bit darker than the surrounding wood, but it all looks so much better and blends nicely - very pleased. I have more teak pieces to do and probably 90% left in the pint - it's going to last a good, long while, a little really does go a long way. And like the other reviews say, it smells like old vegetable oil. Inoffensive, the house doesn't stink and you don't feel like you're getting high on solvents. Perfect. So if you're overwhelmed with the options (other Danish oils, special blends, Tung oils, linseed oil varieties, etc) and trying to figure out which one to try - take the leap. Good results! ... show more
