It works great. I used it on my dinning table to make it smooth. I used thin coats at a time.

Grain filling is tedious. Multiple coats and sanding take a lot of time (especially if it is 31 old golden oak cabinets). Very easy to apply and dries relatively quickly. Paints over well. Although other products can be used (DryDex or similar) painting over those products can leave undesirable results. I think Aqua Coat is the best product for this task, but it certainly would be better if it didn't shrink requiring more (usually 3) coats to get a satisfactory result. That said... I recommend.

I wish I would have found this product a long time ago for my wood projects. Easy to apply. Easy to sand. And a decent price as well. This will be my go to wood/pore filler.

So this stuff works great on some wood, but for others it does not work so great. The one thing I love about this stuff is that it is a clear gel that can be tinted and is easy to spread and work into the grain. I used a transtint mission brown in the grain filler over the general finish dark cherry stain and my goodness does it make the grain pop. It was absolutely beautiful. So thats what I like about this stuff. What I do not like about it and the reason I gave it 5 stars is because it just does not work very well on heavily coarse grained woods such as red oak and ash. Works great for fine grain woods such as maple and sycamore though. Now if the manufacturer stated that this product was not good option for heavy grained woods. Then this would be a 5 star product, but you are led to believe it will be great for any type of wood and that is just not the case. This stuff will will with heavily grained woods, but it is a time consuming process, because you will have to apply 5 or 6 coats of the stuff. Maybe more with an hour of drying and sanding in between each coat.So your project is a fine to medium grain wood then I say go for it. This stuff will work great for those. If you are working with heavily grained wood though. Then look for something else as there are better grain fillers out there for this type of wood.

I have been building "Heirloom Quality" Custom Woodwork for 35+ years, every species from "Alder to Zebrawood" has been in my shop at one time or another, I've never had ANY complaints, the Finish is what my clientele sees first, It can make or ruin a nice custom project. With some of the species I work with selling as much as $40 a board foot, I can't afford to "cut around" some twisted or curly grain, Aqua Coat Clear Wood Grain Filler is the best answer for most of my finish problems, apply oil, stain, dye or what is needed, coat with clear dewaxed shellac, sand w/ 320 grit, clean off the surface, "wipe on, wipe off" like paste wax, let it sit for 1-2 minutes, scrape across the grain w/ a bondo knife, give it a day to dry, sand w/400 grit, if needed for open grain, repete- seal with shellac, sand w/600 grit- top coat with anything -Polyurethane- Lacquer- Clear Enamel, or what is best for your project. It will look as smooth as glass, it fills all the pores, all the open grain- it can be tinted w/ water based tint, and used over bare wood. I have never had any problems with this filler, it's the easiest product to use for a smooth as silk finish- Thanks Amazon for carring such a wonderful product, at a very good price

Applied with a body filler spreader, this stuff goes on smoothly, dries quickly to a completely clear finish, sands to a fine white powder with no clogging of sandpaper, and cleans up with water. Grain filling is uniformly excellent. I’ve used this only with shellac- and water-based finishes, so I can’t comment on its use with oil based finishes. Most highly recommended.
