For those who use Osmo, do you have any experience of this coating on non-wood surfaces? I frequently have filled cracks or inlay on my pieces, and am wondering if Osmo will work. .
A piece I did recently with Osmo also had a large defect filled with epoxy. The epoxy and Osmo seem fine. I don't know how much of a film the Osmo made over the epoxy surface, but it didn't bead up, smear or otherwise look "different". The epoxy was reasonably shiny, but the whole surface had been sanded to p1200.
Remember osmo is part oils and part waxes. The oils will not penetrate epoxy, nothing will. But after oils have dried, etc, the waxes will remain and will buff up nicely.
