I used Tung Oil (Formby's) over Min-Wax oil-based stain on an antique pie safe, a bedroom set, an unfinished rocking chair, and other items. I did all of this around 1978 when we bought our first house. All of this furniture still looks great. I plan to do the same with the finish trim wood of the house I'm currently building. Unless something has changed of which I'm unaware, this should be fine.
