“Very happy with this finish. Easy to apply and dries fairly quickly. Easy touch up. I want the glossy to use on turned bowls but have not have the opportunity to use it yet. Good stuff...”

“I am a segmented bowl turner for about 8 years, before my go to finish was wood bowl finish or shellac . Whis works fing. BUT I love this product. I can finish a bowl in one coat (usually use 2 coats) and it is smooth and shining. You only have to use a small amount to have a good coat, the small can goes a long way. Thanks”

“I was interested in trying Osmo Polyx after all the positive reviews I've read. It is incredibly easy to apply. I did two coats and was amazed at how smooth it felt. I see myself using this instead of my standard finishes, Arm-R -Seal for an oil-based polyurethane, or High Performance when I want a water/based polyurethane for a very clear finish.”

“I have been looking for a fine finish for my furniture shop. After doing some research I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did. This will be the only finish I will be using from now on. The ease of application and durability surpasses anything I have used before. The finish is very natural and highlights the wood grain. The key is light coats and drying time between coats. I have applied 3 coats without any problems. It is a bit more expensive than other finishes but alittle goes a long way with this. I finished an oak three drawer night stand with 3 coats and used about 1/2 inch out of a quart can. Compared to other finishes the fumes are very mild. Worth every penny.”

“Easy to apply. Hardly looks like anything is on the wood. Raised the grain ever so slightly, but a quick "once over " with high grit paper left a clear, smooth finish. Based on my results I was impressed with how smooth and natural the finished looked. Expensive, but worth it!”

“I have just begun using the satin version of this product on musical instruments. Instructions mention not sanding beyond 220 grit and to quit after two coats. I like that! However, I put two coats on a banjo, and then set it aside for quite a while. When I returned to it I sanded it with 400 grit and added a third coat. No problem with adhesion or curing. I have read of using up to five coats with no curing problems and a better semi-gloss finish. I have just received a can of gloss to try on several new instruments. I expect fine results. I only gave 4 stars because my opinion is still tentative, though so far I like it enough for five stars.”

“I bought this to finish a small computer base made of spalted maple. This leaves the wood with a slightly darker tone barely noticeable. Fumes can be unpleasant unless well ventilated. Goes on extremely easy. Two coats is all you can put on because the third won't cure. The wood is well protected and looks exactly like nothing has been done to it. Love it.”
