Wish that had a smaller size
Works well and does what it is supposed to but is way overpriced.

Good product horrible service
I didn't like that the online price was like $4 cheaper and Lowe's would honor that price unless I paid for it online So I had the hassle of that then they couldn't figure out how to ring me out to keep it the sale price from online. Definitely needs to be easier ways

The jury is still out
I’m planning to do some end tables and cabinets with this product. Based on my experience with water based stain I’m unsure. You better start with something you don’t care about as much.
