OsmoPolyx-Oil - 3043 Clear Satin - .125 Liter

This stuff is AMAZING. My cousin who is a master woodworker recommended it to make a huge antique frame perfect

I'm a lazy type so have used a range of poly type finishes and those are ok. Wanted to up the game by getting a nicer finish and this has had good video reviews. This is much nicer than the water based polys I had been using!This applies even and coverage good combined with well sanded pieces. Sanded to 220-320G is about right. This has a slight yellow tint so it makes the wood warmer looking. I use a 5cc syringe to place drops on the surface of my small pieces then rub cross grain using a cotton cloth. That 5cc of this has been enough to cover about a 12x12" area easily depending how dry the wood is. After the first coat, a light sanding with 600 or 1000G to catch any risers-dust that may have become stuck during the process.This small can will go a long way with my projects. The purple heart I put this on is really beautiful following. Have also had it an birdseye maple, curly maple, walnut, cherry with excellent results. On a few cherry pieces it was blotchy but that's part of working with cherry. Does not take a lot to achieve nice results either.

Osmo's is great for wood projects, works 👍great!

Used this to finish a white oak table. It was relatively easy to apply. I used white scrubbing pads cut to 1.5” squares to work it into the wood with a circular motion. I wiped it off with a lint free cloth. Make sure you wipe it down until it is no longer tacky. Working in sections, only leave it on about 15 minutes. 2 coats is usually enough. I like to wear latex gloves while applying, to protect my hands as it is sticky. It is a penetrating finish that hardens/strengthens the top layer of wood fibers. It is not a finish that sits on the wood, like a varnish. It leaves the wood looking more natural than a urethane or varnish. It is very beautiful!

everything you want in a finish; easy to apply, looks great, even smells pleasant............crazy expensive

Easy to work with, clear coated a barn door, and a fireplace mantle.

After having several jars of Rubio monocoat dry up on me, after only a few uses, I chose this. not only is it easier to apply (you don’t have to mix it) it gives a better satin finishThe key to a great satin finish, is to apply one coat, sand with about 400 grit after it dries 24 hrs later, and then apply another coat and buff it in…buff it in with a orbital sander buffing attachment

Strike one: The seller "Bay 15" took eight days just to get the product shipped which tells me they are either very inefficient, or never had the product to sell in the first place and had to buy it in.Strike two: The product finally arrived after two weeks in an undamaged box, but the product can inside was heavily dented, so it must have been shipped this way. It was very lucky that there was no spillage.Strike three: The product itself failed miserably. It was used on Oregon Myrtle and also on Black Oak. Both woods had a moisture content of around 8%. I was easy to apply and spread well. Both projects had been sanded down to a smooth 320 grit. When both projects dried, both were blotchy. One project had a finish that felt like like 80 grit sandpaper ?!? Needless to say that this is totally unacceptable. I had to sand down both products back to bare wood and start the finishing over. They now look great after applying Tung oil.Save your money. Look elsewhere.
