does it leave an attractive finish? Want to use it on a vessel wooden sink

http://www.marinetex.com/gluvit.html this should help better than what i can say. I really liked the results. i used it on my fiberglass deck that had some stress cracks in it and I added Evercoat epoxy color agent and I'm happy with how it turned out. I hope you get some good results, this stuff really is nice.

if applied correctly and sanded properly it looks good. and seals very well.

It is a white/light grey epoxy finish. The instructions recommend it be painted to protect from UV.

It has a thick high gloss finish. Similar to a resin bar-top table. Mine turned out almost clear with a slight tinge of grey/brown.

My wife said she just uses liquid soap, water and a wash rag. This sink has a dull finish so nothing I know of to make it shine. it doesn't scratch up like most sinks though.

I have this faucet on a stainless sink and I like it, but it depends on your personal preference. My granite counters have black and brown flecks and my sink is under mount.

The sink has a dull or Matte finish. It looks great. While we haven't had the sink very long, I am very happy with the purchase.

It will very slightly darken the wood. It will act almost like an enhancer, and the wood will look richer than before it was applied (this was on oak and Birch). I use it on the wooden handles of my custom knives. It may last a bit longer for you as it contains beeswax. I am a believer in it, though I have not used it around a sink. However, I cannot see it causing any harm. Good luck. Tks.

It's very close to black with a slight shimmer (or glitter). We use cooking oil to restore the finish when needed. The sink is deep, so do check that there is enough room below the counter for the trap and plumbing.

I've had this sink for 2-3 years now and it looks as good as the day it was installed. I occasionally use BarKeeper's Friend. Also I wipe it down with mineral oil. That's it! I don't do it often-maybe only once every several months. I do it when the sink starts to look a little dull. I believe the sink is a quartz composite. So far I've not been sorry. I like it so much better than the old stainless that we had.

It does not have a shiny finish. It has a smooth brushed finish like most brushed finish on a faucet.

It is not shiny like the outside. as long as you empty water after use it will stay nice.

I wouldn't say it's brushed, but more of a flat. It's just not shiny stainless. It matches my stainless steel sink.

I've had mine installed for over a year and it still looks great. If you use a lot it may get a little dull in places, however, overall I give it 5 stars. I put mine on my counter top around my sink and on a bar. It still looks great. Just remember to not put anything really hot on it or scrub with harsh chemicals. I have used clorox cleanups on mine and still looks good. I love mine and will redo when needed.

Matte. I have another sink with the same surface. It shines some if I keep it clean, particularly if I use a cleaner designed for granite countertops.

Hello...yes I would recommend on any light coloured sinks just not dark as it tends to have a "bleaching" effect to it. Or I use barkeepers friend now and it is amazing to use and very inexpensive to purchase.

Hi there, it seems to have a nice hard finish, though you could probably sand it down to the wood. It is really a handsome, piece, and I am glad we got it.

If you were to use this on varnished surfaces, it might tend to seat on the surface and get gummy. It is best used on open grained surfaces. It is really a form of rub on varnish that needs to penetrate the surface. I have had very good results using it on old, cracked varnished surfaces like you would have on antique pieces. Use several light coats, never try to put a thick coat down. Rub the excess off between coats after it has sit for 15 to 30 minutes. I have a boat with an open grained teak interior that I use this on and it looks great. I have built numerous pieces of furniture made from pine, teak, cherry and other woods and find that multiple coat of this (6+) provide a very attractive finish that holds up well with a single recoat every 6 months to a year instead of wax or furniture polish.

I do still love this sink, its beautiful. BUT I will say that I do have some chips/scratches on both front corners. They're small and hard to see but they're there which is frustrating. Could've been the way the sink was installed or how the countertop was laid over it. We have quartz counters so they're quite heavy. It also seems to stain pretty easily - if I have a pot or pan in the sink for a day or two I find I'm scrubbing extra hard to remove any ring it left. In hindsight - as much as I love the sink and this type of sinks - I'd probably not go with an apron front sink, and stick with an undermount stainless steel or granite sink! Good luck. I am sure you'll be happy with either choice!

we have a brushed stainless finish...not high shine... it goes nicely with our stainless stove and microwaves...overall, the faucet is great, a very towering/impressive appearance, easy to use, works flawlessly so far (1 month)...recommend this item without reservations
