Does anyone have experience with this product? It is a water-based finish that claims to give the same results as a true oil finish. I am finishing some test pieces and except that the finish is almost flat, as opposed to the satin finish I get from an oil/varnish mix, it looks good. I am most concerned about durability and touch-up.
Thanks in advance,

I experimented with it, and wasn't impressed. The water evaporated in a day or so, leaving an oily surface the oil on the wood. I wiped off the excess, and waited. The oil stayed oily; even two weeks later I could rub my hand on the wood and bring it away oily. While I guess true oils work that way, I'd like my "oil finish" to cure enough that my hands stay clean when I touch it.
