Behlen Furniture Powders are finely ground dry pigment powders that have hundreds of
uses for the finisher. Typically used for spot repairs (or color replacement) on
furniture, they mix easily with shellac, lacquer and varnishes. Because they're 100% dry inert colors
and contain no binder, they can be added to any product. Also great for coloring
epoxy. Sold individually or in sets of 6.

 Enduro-Var Water Based Urethane
- This new finish from General is becoming our
favorite. This product looks more like an oil finish than any water based
one we've seen. Cross-links with air just like solvent based polyurethane
finishes to form a tough, water resistant finish. Good for floors, cabinets
table tops, even trim. Easily brushes or sprayed.
We recommend this product on darker woods like mahogany, cherry and walnut
to bring out the luster and depth that you don't get with water based
finishes. Not recommended for top-coating light paints or stains due to it's
amber color.

 BEHLEN OZ POLISH
- This product
excels as both a cleaner and a polish for virtually any surface. Best way to
clean and maintain your project's finish or a commercial factory finish. Also
great for metals and plastics (I clean my bikes with it). Made as an emulsion
with water and solvents, it cleans both water soluble and oil soluble grime and
puts back the shine. Leaves no white residue. Highly recommended.
16 oz bottle with flip top
dispenser.
- An ultraviolet light absorber helps protect wood color.
- Extended evaporation rate so larger pieces can be
polished with greater ease.
- An anti-static agent that means less dusting.
Has a clean,
fresh lemon scent.
- Simply apply and wipe to clean, polish and protect almost
any smooth surface.
- Non-flammable, non-abrasive, greaseless and contains no
silicones.

PASTE WAX - Endorsed by the Guild of
Master Craftsmen this product is a blend a several waxes, including
carnauba. Good for general waxing and excellent for
cleaning and
restoring antiques. This product is easy to use and has a
very pleasant scent so it's great to use on the insides of furniture. The
colored products are popular when applied directly to wood or used over a
very thin shellac sealer to produce a very mellow and natural appearance.

ESPRESSO WATERBASED STAIN
This is a special
application stain that allows you to achieve that dark Espresso color
without a multi-step process. Formulated from dyes and pigments, this
product looks great on just about anything you want in the dark Espresso
color. Can be sprayed or wiped. Typically one coat is all that's necessary,
but darker colors are possible with 2 applications. Made with a special
application acrylic base the product dries slower than a standard waterborne
reduced TransTint. A Homestead exclusive! Once dry, you can topcoat with
any finish. To achieve countless variations use a standard TransTint color
like Orange, Amber or
Bordeaux as a base color, then apply the Espresso.

Scotchbrite Pads - these
abrasive pads are similar to standard Scotchbrite
pads but are thinner so they are more conformable to
contours. Also much easier to use as they come on a
self dispensing perforated roll so you can tear off
individual 4" x 8" pads. Very handy and much better
for in-between finish sanding. Maroon grade is
approximately 320 grit and similar to 00 grade steel
wool. Ultrafine is approximately 600 grit and
similar to 000 steel wool.

ViviTone Solvent Based Micronized Pigments -
We originally made these pigment concentrates for some large
industrial manufacturers that have fell on hard times, so now we are
offering these to our customers. Made with special micronized pigments,
these colors can be easily added to any shellac and lacquer thinner based
lacquer product (nitrocellulose, pre-cats, conversion). Or just reduce them
with denatured alcohol or lacquer thinner for a fast dry stain. Available in
8 oz size, these colors are handy when you need to tint small amounts of
product. Also can be used for touch-ups. Product disperses
quickly and makes great transparent toners or opaque colors, depending on amount
used.
ViviTone™ Solvent Based
Micronized Pigment Colorants - These handy
colors are available in standard Universal Colors (except blue) in an 8 oz jar
for easy dispensing. Unlike traditional Universal Tinting
Colorants these colors can be added in any amount to product to achieve the
effect desired. Perfect product for shellac and furniture lacquers. Has
excellent light fastness. All colors are inter-mixable

process, from preparing the surface to rubbing out a finish and performing
minor repairs. There is no other video on the market that will give you the
