Polyx-Oil - 3043 Clear Satin - .125 Liter

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.

I used this on the black walnut coffee table I made seen above, used a sponge brush to apply and then a white(less abrasive) scrubbing pad to work the oil in

You'll find the same opinion all over the internet: the simplest thing in the world to apply, with a beautiful finish that lets the wood shine through. This is a small amount, true. But it's more than enough for a good-sized table. It's definitely durable, but if it is marred, repairing the finish is a simple as applying it in the first place.

Worked beautifully. Best all in one.

It’s my go-to top coat now for wood furniture.
