Finishes 1st offers a full line of wood finishes products that are of the highest quality and the most environmentally friendly available. Our wood finish of choice is waterborne, the reason being that, when applied properly, it provides the longest possible protection and looks the most natural, highlighting - not masking - the wood's beautiful grain. To be sure, every good quality finish will perform well if maintained according to the manufacturer's directions; however, waterborne finishes will bring out the nicest look in the wood and will outlast the other types.
What is sustainable about this product?
Made from renewable material.
