[Public-List] Cetol vs west systemRe: Seagrass

[John Birch]

On wood finishes, there are no "never do it again, " solutions. The attempts 
at "never do it again" remedies will only result in aged and badly 
deteriorated finishes that will be dues difficult to remove.

The more "never do it again" the finish that is thought to be a perfect 
solution, the more one will say, " I'll never do that again"

There is no free lunch with wood finishes.

All finishes are transitory.

Best

John
