I thought I would reopen this four year old post because the application of Tung Oil on composite barrels has not been discussed in a while.
Questions; how has/does it hold up. How often does it need to be reapplied i.e how durable is it? Does it actually change the color shades of the metal even after it is removed. If you don't like it or want to reapply it how do you remove it?
In my experience when waterfowling for long periods of time in the rain and snow all gun oils and greases eventually fail. Composite barrels seem to be more prone to rusting in such weather, even when recently refinished. I am guessing it's the iron that causes that. Will tung oil hold up better?
How many of you use Tung oil on your barrels?
