“I build custom bass guitars and have used this product now for almost 5 years exclusively. It's excellent!! It's easy to apply with nothing more than a folded paper shop towel. The trick is to work clean. I wipe the piece down with mineral spirits between coats, and lightly hit it with dry 800 grit sandpaper every other coat. I do 6-8 coats because it is a bass guitar and is handled much more than lets say a cabinet or a table would be. I get nearly flawless results every time. Highly recommended.”

“I have used this product on my 8/4"x23"x8' hickory kitchen counter, on three different ambrosia maple tables approx 3'x6', and most recently on a fumed white oak Morris chair for my wife. I used a foam brush to apply gloss to the tables and counter top and a cloth to apply gloss followed by a final coat of satin for the chair. The finish on the tables flattened flawlessly with no streaking and they are beautiful. Two were commissioned by a friend and the third was for my church. The finish on the Morris chair is absolutely gorgeous. The arms of the chair feel great to the touch and the grain of the fumed white oak is lustrous and is a genuine pleasure to see. For large important projects, this is my definite go-to finish.”

“I have used this on many projects over the years. Multiple coats with fine sanding / steel wool / polishing will give you a tough, yet luminous finish. Adds a lot of depth and some amber color. Works equally well on bare wood or over shellac seal coat. Great also over transparent water based dyes. My only gripes are that it is somewhat expensive and the solvent odor is pretty intense.”

“Used this on popular wood stair treads for our home in NC. 12 of them. Saber and sealed 4 times. Easy to work with. Have aged beautifully (5 yrs) remember to keep can sealed when not in use. Store sealed can with unused product up side down to prevent hardening. Also used on other wood: ambrosia maple. Makes grains and color POP. Ready to use again for ceiling in cabin”

“Our local store salesperson, also named Chuck, recommended this for an epoxy and wood charcuterie board. It worked great. Am taking them to our local monthly woodworker's meeting for "Show and Tell." I'm thinking they look too good for a serving piece and will likely make them some type of wall or shelf art. Chuck”
