Our Ceramic finishes are designed to be used as an additional layer of protection over top of your existing finish. We recommend our Black Forest Furniture Oil.
What makes our coatings different?
We are the Original Woodworking Ceramic Coating. Ceramic coatings have been around for years in the automotive industry, utilizing solvent based formulas. Not only are solvent formulas more hazardous to your health, they are not fully compatible with oil based finishes like the ones typically seen in woodworking. Excessive use of solvent based coatings will eventually strip the protective oil from your table. Our coatings are specifically formulated for use over woodworking finishes. By utilizing a water based formula, no damage is done to the oil underneath; the water simply evaporates after application, leaving the protective coating.
Typically, the protective ingredient found in ceramic coatings is SiO2 (silicon dioxide). However, in recent years, some incredible advancements have been made using Graphene as the protective ingredient, proving to be superior to SiO2. Therefore, all of the Black Forest coatings are made using Graphene.
Base Coat:
Durable and scratch resistant finish that reaches a thickness of 2-2.5 microns per layer. The 9H hard finish bonds and penetrates into the surface.
Gold: 1 year protection
Platinum: 2 year protection
Diamond: 5 year protection
Top Coat:
Improves the shine, smoothness and strength of the base coat.
Pair the Black Forest Ceramics Top Coat and Base Coat for additional protection. Can be reapplied yearly or bi-yearly to protect and extend the Base Coat Ceramic coating and hydrophobicity.
Benefits:
Included in kit:
Sold in equal parts 1:1 Top coat and Base coat (Kit size includes the total of both containers) Example: 20mL kit has 10mL of base and 10mL top coat
The time between application is about 30 minutes, about 8 hours dry to touch (you can use it but no liquids) and 24 hours for full cure.

Been working with wood for 55+ years and I've finally found a product that does what you say it will do and gives you an outstanding finished product.....kudos to black forest products!
Black Forest Ceramic Finishing Kits
High quality
If your like me and high gloss finishes aren’t for you, you may like this finish. Easy to apply and it gives a nice satin finish. Two coats of the diamond and one top coat and you’re good to go. Check out the videos from Black Forest. The product seems expensive but you use very little.
This rivals other similar products. Not only is this product vastly supperior, theres little things that make this product nicer to work with...the applicator pads are larger and hold up longer. Same can be said with the micro fiber. Bravo Cam!
