Material: tung oil

I am making my first attempts at building paddles. I would like to use tung oil to finish them.

Lee Valley sells Tung oil and Polymerized Tung oil AND Polymerized Tung oil sealer.

Is there a product I should use for paddles or is there something I should avoid? Or should I just stick with applying the 100% Tung oil and stopping thinking about it?
