Wiping Varnish
Sutherland Welles Wiping Varnish provides extra protection to surfaces where water and food items might be used as in dining room and coffee tables while maintaining a hand-rubbed appearance and feel. Sutherland Welles Wiping Varnish was our first line of resin fortified Polymerized Tung Oil finishes that are made using our polymerized tung oil and resin. This hybrid tung oil-resin system allows you to apply as a hand wiped finish, making it very user-friendly just like our Original Formula Polymerized Tung Oil and Botanical Polymerized Tung Oil. The solvent in the Wiping Varnish is VOC exempt, has minimal odor and a slow evaporation rate, allowing for more open time for application prior to set-up and the need to wipe.

Wiping Varnish Sealer is the base coat for the Wiping Varnish line. It has a very high percentage of Tung Oil that fills the wood pores and provides grain definition. The high Tung Oil content in The Wiping Varnish sealer gives the finish topcoats with their higher resin content more flexibility. After applying two coats of the Wiping Varnish Sealer, complete the finishing process by choosing Low, Medium or High Lustre Wiping Varnish to provide the ultimate sheen and degree of protection desired.
