Waterlox2001-QT Sealer, Quart, Satin, 32 Fl Oz

Very impressed with this product. My project looks like a professional did it!

I applied this over top of UTOS on maple butcher block countertops. The application is super easy but it is very thin, so pour out a little at a time. My issue was either the mineral spirits had not dried completely or did not evaporated entirely prior to applying the H20lox, despite more than an hour wait. When I began to apply the coating, the surface appeared blotchy and it began to form puddles. Without much time to research remedies, I opted to quickly grab a clean rag. I wiped off the material I had used to cover the countertop, making sure to turn the rag so I didn't leave any residue, dust, etc. I then reapplied the H20lox using the paint/stain pad. It covered well, did not puddle or blotch up and dried as it was supposed to do. The surface dried & cured well for the first coat, second is undergoing that process as I type. I was glad I began on the underside first, so I have a better understanding of what to expect on the "finished" side.

I will never waste my money on this garbage product again. Right out of the bottle there was tiny sand size specs. Had to use a paint filter to remove as much as I could. Used their UTOS product per instructions. Wiped of the excess after giving it 10-15 minutes to absorb. Let it dry for two days. Applied the h20lox with a foam brush. Left it to dry and the next day it had large circles all through out the finish and big patches.of brown discoloration. Had to sand the entire project down with 80 grit, 180 grit, and 320 grit. Applied another coat of UTOS. Wiped off the excess. Let it dry over night with a fan blowing on it. Wiped it down with mineral spirits and a clean rag. Let that dry. Then applied a coat of the h20lox with a foam pad applicator. Exact same issue. A minute after it is applied and smoothed out. Little fisheyes start to appear as the wet layer of finish opens up little holes all over the finish.I shook the bottle for a minute the night before. I turned the bottle over a few times like they suggested in their application video and let it sit for ten minutes. I will have to sand this back down AGAIN and go buy a product that actually works.

Good product

I did so much research, and followed directions with everything, the finish just did not turn out. So many bubbles. Used proper tools and everything. It's been 2 months and things are still sticking to the top. Their tounge oil was beautiful though.
