I used Tung Oil on the (mostly wood) interior of the 345. The Tung Oil finish is directly proportional to the amount of work you put into it. The more rubbing, caressing, and polishing you put into it the more it responds with a deep patina and a luster that just is not possible with any "plastic" product.

A real advantage is that should a small area be damaged it is possible to give it a light sanding and bring the damaged area up to par with the rest of the finish with very little work.

I have added several panels to the interior, and, with a bit of work, have matched the finish to the point where it is impossible to tell which of the panels were original and which were added later.

Post some pictures.
