Used to refinish sailboat's sole boards. Stripped to bare wood and sanded to a 220- grit finish. Thinned the first coat 10%. After three coats the finish was very even and nice but not as glossy as anticipated. Some areas appeared cloudy. Tried a fourth coat after light 320-grit hand sanding but had the same satin-like results. I had purchased two quarts so tried the second quart for a fifth coat and now have the expected high gloss and with no cloudiness. Came to the conclusion something just wasn't right with first quart. Recommend wearing a high-quality vapor respirator when applying this product and if used in an enclosed area to expect somewhat offensive off-gassing for, in my case, more than a week. Very pleased with final results.

Used the satin finish on a reclaimed fir floor for my cabin. Needed a hard finish, as the wood was so soft and I wanted no splintering if in sock feet. It is gorgeous.....almost like an old wax finish. Product is super forgiving. Blends beautifully.
