Wood Turner's Finish is a water-oil urethane hybrid for use on wood turnings, bowls and other lathe-turned projects. It is made with more than 50% renewable resources and formulated from sustainable materials that decrease the carbon footprint. This water-based wood finish produces a slight amber tone and dries to recoat in minutes. Because of its unique chemistry, Wood Turner’s Finish is best used as a standalone product on raw wood or over General Finishes Water-Based Stains.
Wood Turners Finish has a little bit of an amber cast to it, so it's perfect for woods like mahogany, walnut, and cherry. Wood Turners Finish should not be tinted.
Don't forget your brushes!

Preparation
- Always ensure the surface is clean of contaminants and dust.
- Ensure any freshly stained surface has dried thoroughly and completely.
- Sand with no finer than 400 grit. Sanding any surface too smoothly can reduce adhesion and create application issues like orange peel.
- Do not use Sanding Sealer or shellac under Wood Turner’s Finish.
- Wipe oily exotic woods with acetone prior to using Wood Turner’s Finish.
- Do NOT use steel wool with water-based finishes; the particles will get trapped in the finish and rust
Application
- Stir topcoat to reincorporate solids that have settled to the bottom of the can before and throughout the application process.
- 3+ coats recommended. The number of coats will vary by application technique and personal preference.
- Apply with a synthetic bristle or foam brush, staining pad, rag/towel or spray with HVLP airbrush.
- If desired, thin with distilled water.
- For more open time, add General Finishes Extender. Start with 5%, increase up to 15% by volume.
- Finish sand between coats with a fine-grade (220-320) foam sanding pad, 400-grit sandpaper or gray non-woven pad to improve smoothness and adhesion.
- Remove dust with a vacuum, compressed air, an oil-free tack cloth or a water-dampened rag.
