Preserve unused finishing materials! Just spray in the can and seal.

Bloxygen uses an inert gas to drive the oxygen out of your container. Simply blow the oxygen out of your container with Bloxygen and then seal the lid. The heavy, inert Bloxygen gas sinks down to block oxygen from the liquid surface. Because Bloxygen is heavier than air, it will separate the liquid surface from any air that may remain in the container, preventing a dry skin from forming over the liquid.

Recommended for oil/solvent based products. Not for use with latex or lacquer products. Up to 75 uses per container.

Non-flammable. Non-toxic. Contains argon.

My Wife and I do a lot of craft items. If I am going to be using a paint or stain brush the next day I put it in a self sealing plastic bag shoot in a little Bloxygen and it keeps the brush good till the next day. This saves a lot of clean up time.

I have been very pleased with the product. Especially now with cost of finish products. Would recommend it.

I've used this product for almost 10 years and though a luxury, it definitely helps get the most servicable life out of finish materials. Well worth the price.

It definitely helps, especially in finishes using tung oil. I've trashed or scummed a lot fewer cans of finish since using this. REMEMBER - Doesn't work for latex/water-based finishes.

This product was tried (following directions exactly and every other way) on spar varnish. It utterly failed to work on *any* occasion (about 7). A skim formed on the varnish in exactly the same amount of time that it would have with no squirts of expensive gases (tested with as little as 20 hours with can 3/4 full). I believe I have never spent so much for so little effect. Not recommended for spar varnish (at least).

This product works if the container being used to store varnish/tung oil/etc. is completely sealed and non-permeable to oxygen. Many plastic containers allow oxygen to pass through them and will not protect varnish. I use it to protect Epifanes varnish which is a bit pricey, and small glass bottles.
My only beef is the price which is 2x what it should be.

Didn't work for me on oil based paint. I get similar results or even better with propane from a hand torch.

Editor's note: We can't recommend your propane method with oil based products Mark, due to safety/flammability concerns.

"I purchased 4 sets of Steel Table Legs at a huge discount! More than 50% off compared to what I thought was already a good deal from another online store. Had to cancel that one and thankful I found this site. My hours of searching online paid off. "
