Trade Secret for wood.
Wait till Lou sees the post.
He is the guy that invented the product.

Hi Jake. TSW is Trade Secret for Wood. It's a product that my partner and I make. It's a high quality topcoat that a number of folks on the site find to meet their needs. It's available from either Pens of Color (www.pocwoodworking.com) or from me.
FYI, I am writing a short "espistle" on finishing at Brent's request. I will put it in the Finishing forum later this evening. It will give you more of the details.

My fingers smell like coconut right now. Either I just finished an order of 22 pens with TSW on every one of them OR I have been stirring Pina Coladas with my fingers. Guess which one! [

TSW is a fantastic product. If you like Renaissance Wax, you'll love TWS.

I need to get some of that TWS...all I have is President's Choice. At least that's what the jar says.[]
]Are you still using that first jar, Gary? Dang, bro, order some more and you can have bookending products! [8D]

Yep...I'm holding on to it. One day I'll be able to tell everyone "I knew him before he became famous...back when it was called President's Choice". By then this little jar will probably be worth a few hundred thousand to some museum.[8D]
You guys are too funny! But, just in case, I did keep a couple of the original test jars that are hand printed "TSW-1121"!

Precisely why my first order was for 2 jars. If I was really smart I would have ordered 2 large and 2 small jars so I would have the “complete collectors editionâ€
Someday I’ll learn… But that day is not today.

My guess is both! [

Ok, another question about it...how do you use it? Before Finish? After Finish? Is it the Finish?
Thanks,
Jake
Thanks,

I'll refer you both (Alice and Jake) to another post which should answer your questions. If you need more specifics, let me know in the forums or email me. http://www.penturners.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3939&whichpage=1#34401
