just wondered what everyones favorite or most used type and brand of finish to use.
i use mostly minwax since its easier to get where i live. i do like deft lacquer sanding sealer. dries quick and sands easily. defts water based finish is good too. use that often as well.

I used to do alot of refinishing work and I personally do not care for Deft products in general however, due to its ease of location at Lowe's I do use Minwax products faithfully and think they provide a great finish...I am a big fan of their polycrylic for use over anything water based, ie. latex paints, stains, etc. I also use their finishing wax and their wood conditioner, sanding sealer, etc.. Have you ever tried Cabot brand stains, I will use them in a pinch, like when Minwax doesn't have my black in stock, Cabot has an Ebony but, it has alot of shine to it:-)
I almost always use min wax products also, I have used cabot but I thought it was a little harder to apply their stain then min wax, I use min wax wipe on poly most of the time, but sometimes I do use the brush on or the spray on. I would like to try other brands but for me to get them I have to mail order them.

My weak link has always been finishing... I am however starting to become a fan of Tung Oil.. works good and is relatively idiot proof (I've tested it : -)..

Finally installed a 4" dust collection system in my shop. I'd like to find a 4" collection port for my Kreg router table (PRS1045) fence. Anybody know where I can find such an animal or one that can be modified to fit?Thanks!Continue

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
