Tung Oil - where is it?

[zeb]

After learning on here that tung oil is the best thing since sliced bread I have been trawling the brico sheds looking for it with no luck. If it's so good why isn't it available in France as the French seem to stock zillions of products for cleaning, staining, waxing, oiling, polishing and treating wood?

I have some new floor boards to treat urgently (before parents arrive) so plumped for tinted wax oil. Very expensive as it's for a large area but the guy in the shop told me it was the best thing on the market for my parquet. I asked him about tung oil and he shrugged and boffed! So where is this stuff? Maybe it's all stacked up in Hendo's barn (sorry, Andrew but I can't afford for you to do it and I want to do it myself as oiling a floor isn't really beyond me)

Any ideas folks? If I can buy sometoday (Angouleme) I'll return the other stuff.
