To start it off, the item was lost in traffic and somehow finally got to me well after the date promised. I was so anxious to receive it finally...I could not wait to do my tables and some chairs that I had that were just plain old ugly. I tooke it out of the clear bag that it came in with a sponge and no instructions or retail packaging and had already prepared my table and chairs for this product. Whiped on in a circular motion the entire table as as soon as it went on it dried and made my table ashy and white stains all over after drying....the chairs were worst than before I started. This item is a total waste of time and money...I would not recommend this item to friends or family...Keep your money and get something else that will not make your wood look ashy! Horrible Product...Returning. It is not as described!
