Anyone of you used this stuff? Looks promising...

[Brian]

Yes it does, thanks for the link I might try it

[Dragyn]

Hmmmm. A water based clear coat that doesn't mute the natural colours of woods. I think I need to try that stuff out on some of my other woodworking projects, besides the guitars. . . .

Thanks for the link!

There are a few folks at MIMF that are writing in with reviews, you may want to check that out.

For the first time in my life, I used waterbased products on a dresser I'm building. Man, what an easy task! I shot the Sanding Sealer coats...each was ready to sand in 30 minutes, went on super flat, and clean up hardly took any time! I'm using a satin top coat, which I'll probably shoot tonight.

hey, this stuff sounds really good

got a link to those mimf reviews?

It looks like they are going to D-con it

[Ki swordsman]

what makes you say that?

[Clavin]

I happen to know that John Kinaird used that stuff on the orchids inlaid guitar, and he really liked the way it worked.

Many, many other luthiers I know are trying it and becoming converts. I know Mike Doolin of Doolin guitars uses it ( I think) and he loves it.

1/2 the line is D-conned now.

The products that they've discontinued are the KTM-4A line. KTM-9 was designed to replace KTM-4A and the cross-linker additive. All the new(er) KTM wood finishes are self-crosslinking. Go to Grafted Coatings for more information.
