Furniture Oil

One happy neigbour With her new table. So much easier than polishing epoxy to achieve the right finish. And if the hardness is better it’s a win.

Did a truck bed for a 54 Ford F100 out of Walnut and used the furniture oil and ceramic coat to finish it. The customer couldn’t be happier, the finished product was fantastic.

I am very pleased with the result.... thank you

Having seen Black Forest’s fabulous You Tube videos, I purchased the oil and ceramics immediately .
So I applied two coats of oil - 2 days between
I waited a week before applying Ceramic base coat. Then 24 hours before ceramic top coat. Another 2 weeks before use
Night 1, first party. See photo for sad conclusion to this VERY PATIENT process.
I will use the oil/ buff technique many times in the future. But NOT on tabletops. Thx. WWW.Karrcustomfurniture

We bought a walnut/epoxy table off of Etsy and I'd expected it to have a top coat of epoxy sealing the tabletop. It didn't and the walnut was raw, with no protective coating of any kind on it. The manufacturer - who was out of Turkey - recommended that I call Black Forest Wood Company. I not only bought the BF furniture oil, but the ceramic coating and top coating. I watched all the BF videos, instructing how to seal the table, and coat the table. I had a spot I had sanded on the table, causing a huge blemish in the epoxy, and they even helped me out with that. I was able to completely repair and seal the table. It looks amazing! I highly recommend buying the furniture oil, ceramic sealer and all the pads, microfiber application sheets and microfiber hand towels. Everything together cost a bit more than the competitors, but it was all totally worth it! (I did have to purchase some 8000 grit sandpaper elsewhere for the final removal of my sanding scuff, but the BF crew advised me on how to best work with it!!) 5 stars all the way!!

What a great product! Very very easy to apply (I use a 3M filler squeegee, then a white pad on an orbital then blue shop towel). Doing the proper first coat looks great and scuffing to add a second coat just bumps the sheen on your piece.

Coupled with the Diamond coating to give my clients a long time protection.

I would be buying more now, but even with 2 dining tables and a coffee table done my 237ml can is still 1/3rd full But will be re-upping with more Oil and more Ceramics. No more other brands oil, no more two part mixings, just plain and simple easy to use.

Small amount will bring you along the way

Was very easy to use and turned out beautiful

I watched the youtube video and it was simple enough to use. I put on 2 coats. It has a great finish on our black walnut headboard.

Easy to use with a white pad and orbital sander adding a little at a time for good coverage and penetrating ability. First coat uses more and the other coats use very little, I like the 3 coat look.

This product is amazing. It's fairly easy to apply and buff off. I did about 10 tables with one large can. The sheen it'll build looks comparable to urethane finishes. I apply 2-3 coats depending how porous the wood is.

I used this to finish my walnut and maple workbench. I am extremely happy with how the finish brings out the natural beauty of the wood. Every step of the way the littlest of figuring, curl, and other hard to see features popped out as I was applying it. I was especially impressed with the tone that the maple took on. This product also has almost no odor which is a huge plus for me since my shop is in my house and other products you could smell throughout for 2-3 days after applying them.

Now to talk about the application of the product. Most of us have seen the videos of them applying it to table tops with sanders and polishers so I was a little concerned how this might go on a fully assembled piece of furniture where you have to apply by hand. I did not take anything apart to apply the finish here and I have to say that the application of it was still very easy. For my application I cut several roughly 2" square pieces of white scotch brite pads to do my main application of the product and would replace them as I felt they were getting too wore down. For the top I would use a stick to drizzle the finish on and then buff it in by hand with the 2" square pad. For the rest of the bench where surfaces were vertical or corners that might be hard to get into I would just lightly dip the corner or edge of the pad in the oil being careful to not get too much as a little goes a long ways. I tried to work in areas that I could cover in 3-5 minutes. After that I followed up with a bigger piece (2"x4")of white scotch brite pad to buff in the finish and after doing that I would just buff off any excess with a lint free cloth. I did this process for the entirety of the bench and didn't notice any runs, drips, or variations from overlap areas. The product was just the right consistency to be able to work into the corners with the white pad and as long as I did it after spreading a bigger area working my way towards the corners I didn't experience much pooling of the product and everything looks finished without some of the lines you might see with other finishes where you can see that it didn't get in the corners good.

I think this is going to be my new go to finish for projects. A huge thanks goes out to Black Forest Wood Co. for making this product available to all of us and producing great videos that we can learn from! I definitely recommend this to anyone who might be on the fence about it, especially if you are thinking of applying by hand.

You guys did a great job perfecting your own finish, I love using it and it's my new go-to finish!

Excellent product but don’t apply too much and wait to cure completely. It brings all the grains out. Highly recommend

Furniture Oil

Comparing with Rubio for a project. BF is way thicker (I don’t mind that), consequently it stays tackier, so watch out for dust, but I like the final product.

I found the oil easy to apply and to wipe off the excess. A single coat looks great. I like this

A great finishing oil

Very helpful, even planed the board that I bought!

This oil has quite a learning curve, especially if you only other experience is with linseed oil or other similarly liquidy finishes.
Went way too heavy on my first coat, but having learned from my mistake the second and third (only two are required but I figured a third can't hurt) went on super easy and the end product looks phenomenal.
Currently waiting for it to fully cure and then applying the ceramic coat, if the ceramic meets my expectations I'll be a repeat customer for sure.

For any first time users, it cannot be stressed enough just how little is needed!! What ended up working for me was dipping a plastic spoon in the can, and letting it drizzle on, and from there I would just periodically touch the table and when it was no longer tacky or not as tacky I would apply more. From there, just follow the directions on the can and your work will have an amazing finish :)

Went on easy, wood looked good and had a nice water repellency.

Amazing product -
Easy to apply and great finish. Highly recommend. Arrived quickly and clear instructions as well as great YouTube videos as well.
