Tung Oil Applications

How many coats of tung oil would you recommend. I've already applied two coats, and it already looks pretty good, but I've heard of guys putting on half a dozen applications. Will more coats really make a difference?

As long as you allow each coat to dry, the more you apply the more water resistant the wood gets. I like tung oil because it's not toxic but there are better finishes out there if you need something quick.
