Why are some users saying this product never dries and therefore is always attracting bugs that stick to it?

I brushed a good coat on a planter with dry, bare cedar and pine -just about how you’d paint. Not leaving any spots that would drip (keep re-brushing those areas) - at about 50 degF. Within 20-30 minutes gave it a good wipe down with dry cotton paint rags. The rags got stained /slightly dampened about as much as they would from wiping a wet countertop. In 24-30 hours well vented (garage door open) the boards were ‘dry’ (wiping with my hand would get the most slight film) but not sticky at all. So I wiped them with the dry cloth again, taking the most slight amount off. One small rag 6” square) would “dry” 10 square feet. Looking at the edges of the boards I could see the sealant had sunk in by 1/4 of an inch. It looks like it works best if the wood is dry, “thirsty”, and warm ( 50 degF). I wouldn’t do the initial wipe of ‘excess’ too soon, let it soak in working it with a brush. I’m totally satisfied (and I’m a picky woodworker).

How long does it take to cure? Does it need a week like tung oil or can it be used once dry?

24 hours to dry...three days to cure.

Will this seal in any potential contaminates that may leach into the soil from the wood used to make the garden bed like China Fir?

It penetrates and bonds to the wood fibers. So I doubt any contaminates in the fibers could leach out into the soil.

What tint is this product / asin?

It is clear. If you want it tinted you can use our Seal It Green Total Wood which is a similar plant based sealer but comes in different tints. It is available on Amazon also.
