Our Wiping Varnish product was our first line of resin fortified finishes. It was developed to provide more protection to surfaces where water and food items might be used as in dining room and coffee tables, but where you would want to maintain a hand-rubbed appearance and feel.  The addition of oil to any resin system allows you to work the resin more and in the case of this formulation, it can be hand wiped which makes it very user-friendly just like our Original Formula and Botanical Tung Oil. The solvent in the Wiping Varnish is VOC exempt and has minimal odor. The solvent has a slow evaporation rate which allows for more open time for application prior to set-up and the need to wipe. Wiping Varnish Low Lustre is the perfect choice as a topcoat for providing a satin sheen while offering more protection to the surface.  The solid content of the coating, that is the Low Lustre Tung Oil and resin, are equal in amount which provides long open time for application, ease of wiping as well as the supple oil feel to a cured surface.  The process begins with two coats of Wiping Varnish Sealer as the base coats which have a very high percentage of Tung Oil that helps fill the wood pore and provides all the grain definition.
