Would RecommendThis wood sealer worked great filling in small grain gaps for a smith finish. I did two coats sanded with 220 and it turned out nice.

♥️My Sanding Sealer for my refinished furniture!
Would RecommendI like to use oak pallet wood to resurface furniture pieces and now that I use my Minwax sanding sealer purchased from Lowe’s, my pallet topped furniture has a nice smooth feel. I finish it off with my Minwax triple coat polyurethane also Purchased from Lowe’s! Thank you Lowe’s for making my refinished pieces easier, prettier, and more durable.

Minwax Sanding Sealer
Would RecommendA must have when prepping raw wood for finishing. Used as my first coat on my newly laid pine plank floors. It conditioned the wood while also sealing it from dirt and moisture prior to sealing with water based polyurethaning.
