Questions & answers
Will it change the color of the wood?
Yes. It dries amber, with a gloss sheen.
How long between coats, and when can I use it?
Dry to the touch in 12+ hours, ready to recoat after 24+ hours, light use after 7-10 days, and fully cured at 30 days. Plan on 3 coats.
Why isn't my finish drying on walnut?
Oily woods such as walnut can need a longer dry time. If the first coat never dries, the second will not either; you may need to sand back and start over.
How do I apply it?
Brush or roll. It is thin and is not made for spraying.
What sizes does it come in?
Pints and quarts.
