Question 1

I bought AFM SafeCoat AcriGlaze a while ago for a different project I decided not to do. I was wondering if I can use this as a sealer substitute over kitchen cabinets I painted. I want a matte non-toxic sealer for the cabinet doors so they can be easily wiped down when cleaning. Will this product work? Will spills and splashes easily wipe off with this? View answer

Question 3

I am looking for a matte finish. In two places for the AFM Safecoat, it notes that if you want a satin finish, you need to add one base coat of gloss first. But in a third place it notes the same applies for a matte finish. So, which is it? And furthermore, why is that? Seems like a lot of money to spend for a quart of Gloss that I'll barely need and will probably never come close to finishing. Thanks for your response. View answer

Question 11

Other websites say you "can" put water-based polyurethane over oil-based stain as long as the oil stain has had time to cure. Some recommend a shellac sealer first but others say to just wait for the oil finish to fully dry or cure. If this is the case, then why can I not use SafeCoat Polyureseal BP over my fully dry oil-stained furniture? View answer

Question 12

Hi. I see you do not recommend putting this product over an oil-based stain. However, I had tables made and the guy put a water-based polyurethane (Varathane brand) OVER his oil-based Varathane wood stain. The tables look awesome, no flaking or peeling. But they are off-gassing and the odor is bothersome. But I feel like it will be safe to put a coat of SafeCoat PolySeal BP on top since there is already a water-based finished that was put on last. Yes? View answer
