Wipe on Poly
I have been suggested to use a wipe on poly, the brand is Minwax. I have found some old posts back in 04 and 06 but is there anything new on where to get this product or something similar.
Cheers
Harvey

Yep, Bunnings carry it in stock. Gold can is the high gloss and silver can is the low sheen/satin finish. I use the high gloss.

Hi Harvey! Originally Posted by har7801

This recipe is described in Bob Flexner's book "Understanding Wood Finishing" and Marc Spagnuolo ("The Woodwhisperer") have a DVD with this method A Simple Varnish Finish DVD - $19.99 : The Wood Whisperer Store
I used this method many times and I like it.
