Let’s take a moment to appreciate how beautifully the wires going into the fuse box behind him are laid out. I’m thinking you can trust his details.

I feel so soothed. This is like the Bob Ross of woodworking. :)

I came to this video a year ago to help me finish a frame for my daughter’s room and I’m back again today for a refresher because your videos were so helpful last time.
You’re such a good teacher!! I don’t know how else to explain it but your demeanor on camera very much feels like the grandpa I never had sitting down to teach me 🥹 you just seem like you have a very warm, patient personality and it shows on camera!

I will absolutely always trust a bearded man wearing a plaid shirt and a vintage Canadian roundel hat... thanks for your video!

Bob Ross of woodworking. Very relaxing

After 3 attempted applications with a brush, I learned what I was doing wrong! I'm looking forward to the 4th try now that you have explained steps so well. Thank you.

This has been my go to finish for over 25 years and it has preformed great. From bath room medicine cabinets to tack boxes. I have brushed it and sprayed it. One thing l will add to this video is don't use it from the original container. Dispense it into a separate clean container and use it from there as not to contaminate the rest of the product.

I just have to say thank you. I have zero woodworking and finishing experience. I purchased an 8-ft Butcher's Block slab to make a computer desk out of. I had no idea that they had to be sealed and they came dry. I scrambled and started researching. I watched lots of videos but your video was by far the best. Simple straight to the point. I went out today and I bought water based polyurethane, sponge applicators and a proper sanding block. I followed your instructions to a T. I'm just about to put my third coat on and as of right now it looks phenomenal. You took a lot of the stress out for me and allowed me to accomplish what I wanted. Thank you so very much for the extremely helpful video ❤

I've watched a dozen videos on this topic to educate myself as I start to work on a project, but this one is easily my favorite. Very clear and very detailed explanations. Thank you for making these!

[jasonfair]

doing this exact thing with this exact product right now. This is incredibly helpful! Thank you.

[Stephen-jwci]

super helpful video, very well done. had to do a double take because you look so much like my grandfather that for a moment i thought he had a secret youtube channel

[JJ-ofng]

He really takes apart what one would think would be a simple procedure and reveals how it in fact is not.
Bravo!

[steamer]

All of His videos are top notch. Much appreciated.

[rebeltheharem]

Great fideo. I kind of wish I watched this video before I did my desk. It would have been very helpful. Oh well, back to sanding and buffering.

[annablant]

Thank you, your videos helped me today to get my kitchen countertop done! 😊

Great video - well done explaining the whys and nuances of applying the poly, like how pressing the foam brush creates bubbles and also the reason foam is better than bristles. I am about to start applying and this was a great thing to see

[bob-prye]

[gregreilly]

Nice video, I use this product but always spray on with a turbine sprayer.
