Cure time is the amount of time needed for the finish on a piece to reach maximum hardness and be ready for normal use. This is different than “dry time.”  During the curing stage, treat the item with special care.
Avoid placing heavy objects on it.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
Always avoid the use furniture polishes, dusting sprays or oil soaps
as they may contaminate the finish for future recoating.
Use a water dampened cloth for regular cleaning.

WATER SPILLS AND DAILY USE: Clean water spills up as they occur during regular use and protect from heat. Although General Finishes products are water resistant, they are not impervious to water. Surfaces will not be damaged by spilled water so long as it is cleaned up promptly. We recommend using coasters to protect your wood from standing water and pot holders to protect from heat.

PREVENT SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION: This is a combustible product.
Dispose of product soaked rags for all oil base products in accordance with local ordinances.

CLEANING YOUR FINISH: Clean with a water-damp rag.
Do NOT clean until the finish has cured completely (30 days).
If your surface requires deep cleaning due to grease or grime, add a speck of detergent or a bit of vinegar.

Avoid using oil-soap or silcone-based daily cleaners such as Pledge, Endust or Murphy’s Oil.

On bare wood sand to 150 or 180. Can be wet sanded into the wood using 400-600 grit.
Wipe off excess after sanding.
