This stuff was posted last week and the description intrigued me so I ordered a bottle I am well pleased with the finish I used it as a friction polish just a small drop on the cloth per application so you dont have to wait for an hour between coats just 30 to 45 sec I applied about 6 coats in a very short time and then one coat off the lathe and as it promises to be chemicals and impact resistant then it cant be bad Craft Coat / 6oz - Water Based Exotic Wood Finish - Craft Coat - Finishing Products - Shop

I applied a few coats with the lathe running but dont buff to long or it goes flat then one coat off the lathe and let it dry but no sanding after application

OK think that's where I went wrong.. what sort of speed did you use? Think I might be a bit fast at 2000 rpm
