Tinyroots Choji Oil Maintenance Kit – Protect, Restore & Preserve Carbon Steel Tools
Protect Your Tools the Traditional Japanese Way
For anyone who owns carbon-steel tools - bonsai shears, woodworking chisels, kitchen knives, garden tools, construction tools - this Choji Oil Kit is an absolute essential. Carbon steel delivers unmatched sharpness, but it also demands proper care. This kit gives you everything you need to clean, protect, and restore your tools so they last for decades.
Why Choji Oil?
For generations, Japanese swordsmiths, bonsai artisans, and woodworkers have used Choji Oil to prevent rust and corrosion on their most valuable tools. It’s non-toxic, non-greasy, and leaves a clean, protective finish that enhances both appearance and longevity.
What It Does:
- Shields carbon-steel surfaces from rust and oxidation
- Restores shine to weathered tools and pots
- Prevents moisture damage
- Helps maintain sharper edges, longer
Rust Already Showing? No Problem.
The included Rust Eraser gently removes early rust spots without harming the steel, bringing tools back to life quickly and safely.
How to Use:
Apply a small amount of Choji Oil and buff with the lint-free cloth to clean, protect, and restore. For rust, lightly rub with the Rust Eraser, then finish with a thin coat of oil.
What’s Included:
- 1 fl. oz. Tinyroots Choji Oil (easy-use dispenser)
- Rust Eraser for removing surface rust
- Lint-Free Cloth for finishing and polishing
Whether you’re caring for bonsai tools or maintaining equipment in the workshop, kitchen, or job site—this kit keeps your carbon-steel tools performing their best.
