This is an easy to apply finish that gives you excellant results. You may also want to try General Finishes Armor Seal if you need something even more durable. One thing I foud out the hard way was that you must not work out of the can and it's a good idea to spray some Bloxegen or Compressed Gas like Dust remover you use on your computer or camera into the Walterlox can after each use. This stuff will gel on you if you induce too much oxygen into the can. All I was doing was applying the oil with a rag out of the can and within about 10 days of use, the oil started to gel. Once it does that, you can't fix it. I suggest dumping out some in a little cup or bottle. Only use what you need and don't dump the used finish back into the can if you have any left over. Waterlox suggested tipping half full containers upside down so the can is sitting on the cap. This will prevent dead air from geling the finish. At [$] per quart you really need to be careful with how you store this product and apply it. Hope this helps you out.

Remember to use in well vented space, that is dust free. Use foam brush for application do a light sand after 4 or 5 coat. 8 coats is a very durable finish. If you want to use polyurethane consider this product as a better choice.

I wipe this finish on with soft cotton cloth using smooth even strokes. I do 4 to 6 coats sanding lightly with a 320 sponge in between each coat. Do one coat a day letting dry overnight.

Waterlox Original is my 'go-to' finish for almost everything. I prefer oil finishes and this has a tung oil base which gives more protection than linseed oil bases. I make a lot of tables so this is perfect. Also the finish looks crisp not muddy. It also drys faster than a lot of other oils so I can wipe a coat on in the morning and another at night.

Leaves a beautiful finish on Ash. You just need to take your time and allow at least 24 hours between coats. Light steel wool may help before final coat.

Being a wood turner (hobby), I wanted to save money in my finishing products so I had stayed away from Waterlox because it is expensive. After not being happy with results, I gave in and bought the best product out there, Waterlox. A little goes a long way and the results are magnificent; highlights wood grain beautifully and protects the piece. Could have saved cash by buying the best right off the bat.
