Yeah -_- if any of the alternatives had been as low VOC as Odie’s I probably would have used them instead… But in this case, since it was indoor with kids I didn’t really want something fumey.

Gotcha, good to know! Id worry about the epoxy adhering, but good to know it works.

How do you combo it with epoxy? I’m curious.

I wish Apple was transparent enough to have a real comparison of their privacy.

Personal guess, Apple is generating just as much personal data, just using it less offensively than Google. That’s not good but it’s betterish, I guess.

Main things I’m stuck using Google for at the moment are Gmail and Maps. Gmail, because my address I’ve had over there since Gmail was invite only. Maps, because they are one of the only decent sources for restraunt reviews these days (why did Zomato have to kill UrbanSpoon :( )

That’s part 2 of this project. We will see, the hand rails are not in great shape. May replace, or paint them. The banisters have more visual impact anyway, and are a significantly nicer wood.

No idea. Hand rial is the next project. Either going to sand down finish to match, replace with something new, or paint. Undecided.

We’ve been dealing with the smell of citristrip this weekend lol, we can deal with the poly smells. Our house uses evap cooling which provides a ton of options for ducting air away from where the people are.

Wish that was an option, but whatever dingaling installed this stuff put all kinds of caulk on the bottom edge and then nailed it in…

Somebody committed a series crime against wood with this lol. Just trying to come up with something reasonable.

Why would you go with a stain+poly vs a finishing oil of some sort?
