The term PINE OOZE is a combination of two words, RESIN and OOZE. RESIN is a sticky, yellowish-brown substance that is secreted by certain plants, especially conifers such as pine trees. It is used in many products, including varnishes, adhesives, and perfumes. OOZE is a slow, steady flow of a liquid or gas, often caused by pressure or gravity. Together, PINE OOZE refers to the slow, steady flow of RESIN from a pine tree.
