I have recently came across a Finnish that I wondered if anyone has some experience with. It's called CleanArmour. So far the places I have looked don't post the price of this product, so I'm guessing that it is pretty expensive. What attracts me to this Finnish is that it's easy to use and is UV protective, although the blurb doesn't indicate over what time frame. I used Osage orange and Blood wood in my banjo build and both these woods will turn a mahogany brown over time. So I'm hoping that this UV protective coating will significantly reduce this process.

Exposure to UV light to cure in a matter of seconds

 

I have no experience with this material. The Looth Group (instrument repair) covered it in one of their sessions. The cure time is attractive as exposure to blue UV light causes the finish to cure immediately. I have no idea about how it looks or how it affects acoustic properties.

I tried doing a search for that forum and a search under CleanArmour with no results .
