## Description

desertcart.com: General Finishes Arm-R-Seal Oil Based Topcoat, 1 Quart, Satin : Everything Else

Review: Loved It - Works as described. Covered well, easy to apply. Drying time was accurate. Would purchase again. Made the dinner table redo look like new. And the family loved it!!
Review: Excellent product - We tested almost a dozen products to use for finishing all the interior woodwork on the first floor of our home. This product was the best. It was easy to apply with a cloth applicator, dried well and looks great. The Arm-r-seal satin finish must be stirred every time you dip your applicator into the can In order to achieve a satin finish, but that is typical of any finish that is not high gloss. It should not be brushed back and forth a lot but it levels itself very well as it is thin. It dried enough to handle carefully in an hour but you must wait about 24 hours to recoat Buffing with a 3M pad between coats is recommended. Please note it has a strong odor though less so than oil based polyurethane. You will need a respirator if you are working with it indoors, or at least, work outside. This is a urethane varnish, very similar to spar varnish, but without the UV protective ingredient in spar varnish. It is softer than polyurethane so it would not wear as well on a floor or a bar top. For our project which involved oak window and door casings, doors, transoms and other bits of Victorian interior trim it was perfect.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this top coat durable enough to be used on a breakfast table?**
A: Yes. 5 coats. Good stuff. I’ve used it on a floor and furniture.

**Q: What is the drying time on this?..doing a long dining table and want it to stay workable.?**
A: depends on temperature and relative humidity. (If dry, sometimes 3-4 hrs.) Can add another coat when not tacky. Slop it on with a t-shirt, you can do a table quickly. It will level out and see no ridge lines. Lightly sand with 320-400 between coats, blow off dust before the other coats. 2-3 coats usually. awesome, awesome product.

**Q: Can this be used if the cutting board had mineral oil on it previously?**
A: Don't  use it on a cutting  board  it is oil base ,not to be consum

**Q: Does this come in the cheap plastic bottle? All mine are set up now and soild.**
A: The gallon size comes in a plastic bottle.  The point of it is to squeeze all the air out so it won't become solid.  The bottle will look deformed but that's ok, just get all the air out.  I had a gallon that has lasted more than 4 years by doing this, and limiting exposure to air by putting the lid back on right after pouring it out.  Did a couple sets of cabinets and still have some left.   Wish they all came in the plastic bottle.  Even though I've deformed the large bottle and there's probably less than a quart in there, this method works best and seems easiest.  I got the can for a piece of walnut furniture since I wanted it to be fresh and now have to decide about a way to keep the air out (bloxygen is pricey and inconvenient, etc.)
