First I've ever heard of it but I see LMI sells it. You can always test it and let us know how it goes. |

Please let us know how it works. I looked at the photos at LMI and I could not tell a difference. Maybe that's good. I want to see it on dark wood, not maple. I get the impression that the mention of tinting has something to do with the fact that on dark wood, you would see it (if not tinted). Here is a good description: http://www.stephengodbe.com/tag/pore-filler/ |

They're products are fine. It's a traditional silex/pore-o-pac - style pore filler. Like all silex pore fillers, you'll want to let it dry well, and put a wash coat of thinned varnish on before pore filling -- you don't want to use shellac under varnish as you may run into adhesion problems with shellac and modern oil varnishes. |
