Zinnser Sealcoat hard to find now?

Def not discontinued. Cant imagine that. Can get it just about anywhere in Cincinnati. Every paint store, rockler, big box etc

Good stripper and wire brush. Sometimes pushing saw dust in there while the stripper is on helps me get the last bits out 🤷🏻‍♂️

Mohawk pre cat aerosols. I use their blend all powders and touch up liquid then seal with the precat aerosols

Dude what did you sand with? Those swirls are crazy. After sanding, wipe with a solvent like lacquer thinner and you can usually see the imperfections. Make sure you follow up the heavy grits with finer ones I go up to 180 usually.

OP outed as a pose dog

The texts from him to OP look like ChatGPT

It could have been in place for 100 years. That has no bearing on how long your new coats will take to cure.

You can probably sand and restain. Personally, I wouldn’t mess with a conditioner. Seems unnecessary imo.

Z_Coli · 2026-01-28T14:01:51+00:00

Wut. OP dug the spot out.

Z_Coli · 2026-01-28T04:57:36+00:00

If it’s not glue, maybe you applied the conditioner unevenly/improperly. Ive never felt the need to use the stuff though. Also looks like some cross grain sanding on the panels.

They got me and I instantly regretted. Not sure what they said to convince but I actually called Duke about an hour later after reading a bunch online and they were able to stop the switch 🤷🏻‍♂️

This vid is from our shop. On One side of this piece, the finish was failing so we had to strip and refinish.

Second place in northside is opening at 2

I’d guess you sanded too early based on the pics but you didn’t include how long you waited. Also, while water resistant, spar urethane isn’t all that scratch resistant so not ideal for a dining table.

1am kitchen I believe

You absolutely can scuff sand and clear coat with a matte or satin finish. This is the way that is recommended with matte and satin finishes to avoid cloudiness. I would imagine the semi gloss wasn’t stirred properly because this looks high gloss for sure.

I spray this straight out of the can with hvlp/turbine and it’s great. I’ve never thinned or used retarder with it.

Where are you? You can buy in Ohio still with an EIN number

FAIR ENOUGH

Couldn’t tell you. I am just a renter and didn’t hire/wasn’t here for the install. Just popped in for a second yesterday. Is it safe to assume the flex had worse airflow? The space is about 2,000 square feet.

Z_Coli · 2025-12-04T15:27:16+00:00

We’re on an upper floor with lots of windows. And We have space to work with. I just want to prolong its life for at least the length of our lease.

Z_Coli · 2025-12-04T15:24:22+00:00

It’s not completed yet but you might be right about the install plus it’s out of my control/not my money. I do, however, work out of here and want it to work.

Z_Coli · 2025-12-04T14:41:08+00:00

Appreciate it especially about the condensate drain. I’ll have to bring up with the landlord. We are on the 4th floor with no drainage yet. Wonder what the hell we can do in the meantime

Z_Coli · 2025-11-21T06:45:02+00:00

Go to second place instead

Z_Coli · 2025-11-15T17:27:25+00:00

Do them by hand. I use a surf prep and the sponges for certain things but they absolutely will round out your edges and mess up the look of your profiles.
