Hello,
I am attempting to use Osmo for the first time on a couple small river tables. I purchased the 1101 ultra thin wood wax finish and the 3011 polyx.
I have been reading some horror stories about streaking and blotching. I’ve read several articles and watched every video on YouTube and they all seem to do it differently.
I am sanding to 320.
I was going to use the 1101 for one coat buffed on, sit for 5-30 mins, and then buffed out with a clean white pad.
I was then going to do the same process with the polyx, but immediately buffing it off instead of waiting. I was going to allow a minimum of 8 hours between coats. Before the last coat I was going to use a gray scratch pad to level out the sheen.
Any tips/tricks for people who have used it? I hear the epoxy is the hardest part because it doesn’t go into the pours like the wood. The wax just layers to protect it.
Im trying to eliminate having to sand it down if I mess a step up.
Thanks!
