RMP Half & Half is Pure Tung Oil pre-mixed 50/50 with natural, food-grade Citrus Solvent, ready to wipe on straight from the can for a water-repellent, food-contact-safe finish.

Flood the surface, let it soak in until it stops absorbing, wipe off the excess and let it rest overnight before the next coat. Three to five coats seal the wood; it turns water resistant in 7 to 10 days and fully cures in up to 30. It's our pick for butcher block counters and cutting boards, and it also works on concrete, terra cotta, stone and slate. Don't put it over an oil-based sealer, stain or finish. The workshop smells like oranges instead of petroleum.

RMP Finishes started in 1993 as D.O. Siever Products, a side business selling pigments that grew out of Dwayne Siever's antique restoration work in a renovated barn in Pennsylvania, and its Real Milk Paint followed in 1995. The family-owned company moved its manufacturing to Hohenwald, Tennessee, in 2014, and in 2025 it changed its name from The Real Milk Paint Co. to RMP Finishes.
