Q: null We had Allwood applied to our teak during the pandemic when we were not there to supervise the applicaiton. It appears to be failing at all the scarf joints. Is there a known problem with this product?

A: I've had a bit of this as well. but I believe it is more a matter of preparation and primer - I'm thinking the primer didn't 'take' because there was something at that location (silicone, weird adhesive...). I'd sanded back and reapplied primer/gloss and had no further problems. ALso - the patch edge is invisible.

Q: null Looking to use the awl grip gloss on a walnut raw edge bartop. Any issues with that or recommendations?
a year ago1 Answer
A: The Awlwood is a very hard durable finish and should work well for that application. It does need to go on top of the Awlwood primer, then 8 coats of the clear gloss.

Q: null Eneded up with a couple sags on the final coat, awlwood says it's buffable and repairable. Anybody have any experience with sanding/buffing this?
4 years ago1 Answer
A: Hum, you're supposed to sand in between coats. It does sand off really well, loved this product. I did put 10 coats and finished with the mat coat so 11 ???? Three years on, NO CHANGE whatsoever. Good luck!

Q: null Would like to use this on a front door but am unsure which primer to use need a dark brown color. Could i use water based stain then primer and topcoat?
4 years ago1 Answer
A: The primer should not be used over a stain. You can darkent the wood somewhat by adding layers of red primer but I'm not sure you would achieve a dark brown. For that your best bet would be a stain and a traditional varnish which will require annual maintenance to keep it looking good.

Q: null Can I use AWLWOOD over epoxy?
8 years ago6 Answers
A: Everdure penetrating epoxy can be used as a primer for Awlwood. This tip came from very experienced boat restore-maintenance guys. I just did this with my oars and the result is excellent.
