### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product

Very good product I used the varnish and the wood polish both on my dining table . Fantastic results. I am very happy. Better than anything you will get in the market.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works fantastic
*by A***L on 5 February 2019*

I used this product for finishing a live-edge acacia slab coffee table and it worked beautifully, bringing out the grain without darkening the wood too much (Indian acacia wood tends to turn red over time) or giving a plasticky look or feel. I did get some raised grain (because of the water) but it was easy to handle with a light sanding between coats. Product was delivered on time and in good shape. Wish the seller also gets smaller unit sizes as I'm left with an almost full can after finishing the table :)
