Waterlox Original Marine Sealer Qt.

We recently built a "cabin in the woods" as a place to go and relax alone. We finished the inside with white pine tongue and groove siding. We wanted a product that was easy to apply, did not leave brush marks, and was very durable. This company's range of products is perfect! The wood sealer worked perfectly to fill in the very open pore structure of the pine with two coats. A very light sanding with 400 grit sand paper and two coats of the gloss finish and it looked better than the paint job on most new cars. No brush marks, no discolored streaks, no flaws like you get from other finishes. The company has a video on how to use their products. Watch it, and follow what they say, and you will be amazed at the result. The down side? It has a very strong smell while it is curing. Be in a very well ventilated area when you are using this. I applied it in a detached garage and left the door open. It takes about two days for the product to cure out and not smell, depending on weather and temperature. Nut the results are well worth it!

Used this for a wooden butcher block counter, turned out beautiful and durable. Lots of great videos I found online on how to apply. Easiest and best applicator I found is one you make yourself, just need a pair of old panty hose and an old cotten t shirt. Cut of a piece of pantyhose, tie a know in one end, insert a piece of the cotten t shirt that you have folded into a thick rectangle and tie a knot in the other end of the pantyhose. Lint free application and no cleanup, just throw it away when you are done. The finish dries out very hard after several weeks.

I'm a complete amateur at woodworking. I used Waterlox several years ago to make a wooden countertop island. I wanted the countertop to be resistant to water. The countertop turned out great because I contacted Waterlox and they were great about talking me through exactly what products to use for my specific project and the best instructions. Waterlox products were easy to work with and left a finished look that still gets compliments. Now I'm working on a new outdoor live edge table and Waterlox customer service came through again. The added confidence of getting instructions that are specific to my project is so worthwhile. I'm half way through my project and the application has been great. The only unknown left is waiting the years to determine if the long term durability of the Marine Sealer is anything like the durability of my last project. Waterlox products are great!

buy this product if you want your wood items to last. I have a butcher block table on the back porch that had some serious stain so we sanded it down and used this product. Finished product looks nice and shiny and is hard as a rock after two coats. Very offensive odors when applying and drying so do it outside or have adequate ventilation. I used the original Waterlox finish on my hardwood cherry floors over 10 years ago and they have held up great. The best part about this product is you do not need to strip down to wood if reapplying in the future. It is not like a poly that sits on top of the surface. it is made up of resin and tung oil and penetrates the surface.

Love this stuff, will use it for many projects

Used on refurbrished pine screen doors. Last product did not stand up to weather and doors became heavily water stained. However this is a marine finish and after two thick coats with sanding in between seems to be holding up well. After this winter I will recoat 2x more times. I expect this will do the trick. Suggest using in an open, well ventilated space when applying. I did mine in an open garage with ventillation fan going and then removed to outdoors for curing. Wait until completely dry before additional coating attempted. Be sure to remove sheen between coats. (0000 steel worked just fine but I was very careful to remove all residue left from pads.)

I use the Marine formula for tool handles on things I've rebuilt. It penetrates completely and dries up very well. No sticky residue left over. even with a couple coats. Waterlox on floors is similar but it does smell going on. I did hickory floors and pre-coated and I'm glad it was in the garage. great product.

Very good product will use again when I run out of this can
