Hi Milk Paint lovers! This is Jenn Baker from Eight Hundred Furniture, LLC. How many of you have come to know and love MMSMP’s Hemp Oil? Those of us who appreciate its versatility refer to it as "liquid gold". Hemp Oil deepens the color of milk paint like none other, but did you know that it can be used for more than a topcoat?

To demonstrate Hemp Oil's far-reaching applications, I gathered some items around my home that were in need of some liquid gold. Let's see how Hemp Oil revived each one.

My default application method is to pour Hemp Oil into a dish and use a brush to apply it. I dip my brush into the oil, apply it to my surface, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wipe away the excess.

Raw Wood

I started with a pretty wooden cutting board that was in need of some hydration. After a simple brush stroke, I could immediately see the wood deepening and reviving. Best of all, Hemp Oil is safe to use on pieces that will come in contact with food such as salad bowls, cutting boards, bread boards, wooden spoons, etc.

And last but not least, let's see how Hemp Oil works its magic on this old wooden toolbox.This is such a pretty piece. You can tell it's handmade because the spacing of the boxes aren't even.

While the wood was pretty to begin with, but it looks even better with an application of Hemp Oil. Can you appreciate the natural red tones that “woke up” in the wood?

See the difference a fresh application of Hemp Oil makes to your driest wooden treasures?

Metal

Let's see what Hemp Oil did on this galvanized bucket I picked up at an antique store a few days ago. I grabbed my brush and started applying it to the metal surface. I thought the metal looked pretty good on its own, but Hemp Oil added a new luster and shininess to the surface.

Now for those of you who are thinking that Hemp Oil will make your surface feel oily after application, let me reassure you that once you wipe away the excess oil from the surface, it's dry to the touch.

How about another metal piece, such as this oil can? The left side is before, and the right side is after. Lovely!

My brass roosters? Check out this before (left) and after (right). I couldn't get over the luster that returned to my roosters with just one application of Hemp Oil!

Leather

Hemp Oil is simply divine when applied to leather as well. My brown Dansko leather clogs get a LOT of use. I work on my knees a lot and the toes of these shoes have received quite a bit of abuse. I've even spilled mineral spirits and paint on them.

I rubbed Hemp Oil onto the shoe in the back with a soft cloth and the results were amazing. I really love how the leather deepened in color and my scuff marks practically disappeared. The before is in the front and the after is in the back. See the transformation?
