Craft Coat Wood Finish – Premium Waterborne Exotic Wood Finish

Craft Coat Wood Finish – Premium Waterborne Linseed Finish

Elevate your turned pens with Craft Coat, the ultimate water-based finish designed specifically for pen makers and woodturners. This one-component, linseed oil-modified waterborne urethane delivers a professional, high-gloss shine with exceptional durability – perfect for exotic woods, resin hybrids, and everyday pen blanks.

Craft Coat self-crosslinks upon exposure to air, creating a tough film that's highly resistant to scuffs, mars, impacts, and chemicals. It provides the rich depth and gloss of traditional oil-modified urethanes but with superior adhesion, even on dense or oily hardwoods like exotics.

Why Pen Turners Love Craft Coat:

• Lightning-Fast Application on the Lathe: Apply as a wipeon polish – multiple coats in under a minute apart (just 30-45 seconds between layers). Build a brilliant gloss quickly without waiting hours.
• Low Odor & Easy Cleanup: Water-based formula with minimal smell. Cleans up with simple soap and water – no harsh solvents needed.
• Safe & Eco-Friendly: Contains no toxins or chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects (California Proposition 65 compliant).
• Versatile Use: Wipe on while turning, brush, spray, or dip. Dries to touch in ~20 minutes; ready for sanding/recoating in 1-2 hours.
• Outstanding Results: Deep, mirror-like shine that enhances grain and color. Excellent for stadium-style resin blanks, wood, and hybrids.

Quick Application Tips for Pen Turning (Friction Polish Method):

1. Sand your blank smoothly (up to 600-2000 grit for best results).
2. With lathe running, apply a small amount to a soft cloth.
3. Wipe on thinly –  dries quickly in just a few seconds.
4. Wait 30-45 seconds, then apply the next coat. Build 6-10 layers for a satin-like finish. For more open grained wood, 10-15 coats can be needed.
5. Final coat off the lathe for extra smoothness.

Full Application Instructions:

• Surface Prep: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, dust-free, and sanded smooth.
• Methods: Wipe on with foam brush, microfiber cloth, spray, or dip.
• Drying: Touch-dry in 20 minutes; recoat in 1-2 hours (longer in cool/humid conditions).
• Cleanup: Soap and water.
