Hi,
I have applied Tung Oil generously to my work tops but have had some runs into sink and on cupboard doors.

Can someone please recommend the best way of removing this without damaging any of the surfaces......

Thanks ALL

white spirit will clean it off, but if you have left it to oxidise, it will harden into a sort of varnish, and take much longer to soften and rub off. You should have cleaned up immediately after applying.
 
Gee JohnD Thanks!!!
I know I should of bl00dy not left it to go hard :rolleyes:
So yes its hard "said the actress to the Bishop"
I need to get it off without effecting sink or the cupboard doors.... and floor tiles..... DO NOT ASK!!!!!
:oops: So ideas???
Cheers
 
I would still use white spirit, but it will take longer.

window scraper should be ok for tiles and sink.
cupboard doors maybe a blunter scraper like a filler knife.
then scotchbrite pad. all of the above with white spirit to soften it, and repeat...
