Installation Notes

  1. 1. Stir well prior to use. Apply full strength with brush, paint pad or spray gun (conventional or low-pressure) without thinning. Excessive thinning may result in reduced performance.
  2. 2. Test the finish on a sample piece of wood to confirm compatibility and desired appearance. For best results apply in temps between 65F-80F with a relative humidity of 40%-60%. Avoid applying in direct sunlight.
  3. 3. Apply thin, even coats taking care to prevent the finish from forming puddles. Overlap brush/spray gun strokes and always maintain a wet edge.
  4. 4. Finish will dry in two hours under normal conditions. High humidity or low temperature may lengthen dry time.
  5. 5. Sand lightly after first coat with very fine sandpaper (220 grit or finer) and remove dust with a water-dampened cloth and Vermont Natural Coatings Wood Cleaner.
  6. 6. After second coat sand only if 24 hours have passed since the previous coat was applied. Sanding, vacuuming and cleaning between coats will aid adhesion and create a smoother surface.
  7. 7. Apply 3 coats for optimum performance.

Great natural coating

I needed a product to put on my window sills and sashes after removing mold. I didn't want to use a chemical with toxic smell and ingredients. The furniture finish was suggested and, so far, it's great. Easy to apply with almost no smell. It dries quickly and even after one coat, it was waterproof. So glad that this product is available and, even happier that it's made in Vermont! Thanks for a local, quality product!!

Pleased so far

Poly whey furniture finish is easy to apply, no smell at all, dries very quickly. 3 coats gives a nice smooth finish. I applied to #1 pine trim and any color change was imperceptible. Time will tell how durable to wear and tear, water stains or sunlight etc. but so far it totally lives up to claims made. Check back in another 6 months? Very pleased so far. Also really happy to support a "sustainable " product that should help dairy farmers AND homeowners alike!

No odor, good workability

The PolyWhey matte finish didn't have much, if any, odor to deal with. Product went on well and was workable for a few minutes without getting sticky and showing brushstrokes. Dried to an even matte finish as expected.
