Lee Valley Tried & True Original Wood Finish

Most finishes today contain petroleum distillates, solvents or heavy metal drier additives. This doesn’t. Dubbed a “true general-purpose finish,” its formula is a highly refined polymerized linseed oil with pure beeswax as an additive. It strictly adheres to the standards established by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and qualifies as non-toxic and safe for food-contact surfaces in both its uncured and cured (wet and dry) states. Adapted from a Shaker recipe, the finish produces a warm antique sheen that is luminous without appearing glossy.

Made using traditional 18th-century production techniques, it is a high-yield finish, providing coverage of at least 75 square feet per 16 fl oz/473ml.

Ideal for all interior woodwork, including doors, windows, trim, cabinets and furniture, a thin coat of finish is applied, allowed to penetrate for 60 minutes, wiped, buffed dry and allowed to cure 24 hours between applications. Three coats are recommended for furniture application; two coats are sufficient for most other surfaces. Periodically buff surfaces to maintain sheen.

A simple, environmentally-friendly finishing solution available in 16 fl oz/473ml and 32 fl oz/946ml containers.
