New to turning.
This was just what I was looking for. Having been creating projects out wood since before high school but new to wood turning I am looking for things that help me in that range.
This has been a great product for helping me put a nice final touch to my turning.

How quickly does it dry and how many coats are needed?????
BEST ANSWER: My experience with crystal coat is the drying time is just a couple of minutes and I have been applying three to four coats for good results. Don't forget to shake the bottle up until it is a milky color or you wont be applying any wax.

Would this be a good finish for a butcher block table? Not one I cut on, just a counter.
BEST ANSWER: I would not use it; it is designed for pens and small wooden turnings. A non-cutting butcher block counter can be sealed/finished with any number of products. If it gets a lot of use and needs periodic refinishing, use an oil product like tung or Danish oil. If you want a hard very long lived finish reach for polyurethane, use several coats, sanding b/w coats. When cured you can add an extra waterproofing with a waxed buffed finish. - Del VZ

Can you use this on bamboo knitting needles?
BEST ANSWER: I Don't think it will work.... It is a friction finished... Needs to be put on while spinning on lathe..... I use a dip process on my pen's and the finish was not smooth..... A polyurethane or clear finish might be better. Polyurethane is a really great smooth finish when I dip my pens with 6 coats.... I have not tried the clear finish yet but I think it will work great. Thanks, Krakkerjakkp356 trust this will help. Jesus loves you John 3:16

is it ok for luthiers hand made guitars?
BEST ANSWER: Crystal Coat is a friction based polish. I use it on my lathe for pen finishing while the lathe is spinning. The heat build up helps polish the finish and give it a nice shine. Since this will be impossible on an instrument I would think there are better finishes to use.

How is this waterproof??
If it gets splashed with water there are spots.
Am I doing something wrong??

BEST ANSWER: I don’t think it’s waterproof. I’ve noticed the finish does wear over time. Especially if it’s the only finish applied. I find it best used to buff out a ca finish.

I have an expired bottle (Oct 2015) of Hut Crystal Coat and the back of the bottle says to apply a coat of Hut Lite to porous woods. I don't see Hut Lite anywhere. Do they not make it anymore and do the newer bottles mention it ?
