Question 12

Which glossy varnish can I use on a painted table? I used a previous eco varnish on it about 20 years ago on this table that had a been painted with artists oil paints and it has a thick rich golden gloss that I love but due to �dining room abuse� it has a few dings. I thought it was made with walnuts and it didn't smell or off gas. I wish I still had the can because I don't remember it�s name but I did get it at a green building supplier View answer

I see that for a matte finish, the first coats should be gloss Acrylacq, followed by matte Acrylacq. Would it be okay to use gloss Acrylacq as the first coats, followed by a matte water based top coat of a different brand (General Finishes)? View answer

Question 29

I am potentially interested in purchasing a sealer (AFM SafeCoat) for some grass cloth wallpaper in my baby's nursery. After reviewing the products available, I can't decide if AFM Safecoat Hard Seal or Acrylacq would be better (or something else I've missed). The wallpaper will be hung with a low-VOC adhesive and hopefully completely installed by the middle of June. My baby is due in the middle of September and I thought I'd give the wallpaper a couple months to cure, then apply the sealer to be safe. I would like to paint the sealer on myself, but I read that there is a bit of a smell. What causes this smell, anything dangerous to the baby? View answer

Question 31

I'm looking for a water based polyacrylic to cover a wood measuring stick I created for my daughter.
