I've worked in 5+ houses where Rubio Monocoat was used on the wood floors in the last eight years or so. I've seen thousands of square feet of it applied. It's tough, I return to properties for work and am always impressed with it's the durability over time. It touches up like a dream, you can actually just do spots and not have it flash like mad. Almost all my daily work is finishing, so I've always been about the 'tried and true'. Rubio has impressed me and has attained that status in my book. I was surprised to see so many woodworkers on YT using it, not sure why. Guess I thought it was a floor thing. My only complaint is sometimes open grain woods don't always fill enough to keep stuff from getting in the vessel elements and having to be sanded out. Waah.

LOVE the floor sander buffing pad idea, man. For rags, I use old bed sheets from a charity shop. They usually have a hard time getting rid of them. On my last rags mission, they filled up a garbage bag with random sheets and through in a little Spiderman toy for my boy and charged me $5. Hack up the sheets and you’ve got rags for years.

For floors where we want to shine up the Rubio, we double coat it and let the second coat dry for an hour or so, then come back with a white buffer pad and hit the whole thing with that. Polishes it up and you don’t lose the ability to touch up or recoat later.

For small voids like this I have switched to using the black glue sticks that is used for Paintless Dent Repair (PDR). It takes a good glue gun, but it works like a charm. It does not shrink and is ready to sand in the amount of time it takes for the glue to cool.

Tuck Tape... used for sealing rigid foam board and sheathing, usually for wall insulation installs. Think of it as the multi-purpose duct tape version of packing tape. The stuff is great and sticks to everything, but can be peeled off with some effort. It is specifically recommended for epoxy applications as well (mold release). I always have a couple rolls on hand.

to answer your question as to what that tape is initially meant for, it's used to tape vapor barrier together so there isn't an open seam behind your drywall or siding. It's also used to tape the vapor barrier to your electrical boxes. this all just make sure you have a nice seal.

I used Rubio for the first time about 2 years ago and instantly fell in love with the ease of application. I used a 275ml can plus the 75ml can of the 2C. 350ml of product covered a piece that was 72" x 36" x 24". I used every drop I had and it came out amazing. I would highly recommend Rubio for any project 👍

Rubio tip - How to determine how much to mix up ? No one seems to mention this in videos and it’s critical to not wasting it due to cost (as you did mention). I’ve seen amounts needed such as 1floz (~30mL) per ~6.5sqft while others say to use 3.25-3.50mL/sqft. That’s total volumes for the 3:1 mixture.

So easy to use and quick finishing. I love their latest upgrade to the maintenance oil- sheen plus. Adds a beautiful satin sheen that looks flawless.

@@coppulor6500 you can start wherever you like, it just depends on how much material you want to remove. You wont remove a lot with higher grits.. they are too smooth. So it may take very long and cost a lot in sandpaper to remove a lot of material. As for the "why", it's because following this rule will ensure that you're able to remove the previous grit's scratches. Just go in opposite directions until the previous grit's scratches are gone. Then you keep moving up to desired grit for smoothness.

Another new convert to Rubio here. We just finished some walnut floating shelves with it today. Bought an extra because we didn't think the tiny little can could handle 100 bdft. Took less than two hours, the finish looks so clean and professional, unbelievably easy and fast. And that was in a 50° garage. AND, we didn't even use one 350ml can combo, still have about 1/5th left. When they say a little bit goes a loooooooong way, they aren't kidding. Sorry I sound like a shill here, but it really is that good, just blown away how much better it is than the poly we've been using at basically every concievable angle. Not going to be spending a day+ putting on half a dozen coats of stinking, running, lapping, dust-spotting poly that takes forever especially in cold weather. $60 for the tiny can may seem ludicrous if you're used to 4x the amount for 4x less price of regular varnish, but I'll say the quality and speed of the finish is actually a much better value than fighting multiple coats to make poly look good. Thanks Bourbon Moth for the heads up. That ends my commercial, I guess. Hemmed and hawwed over trying it because it seemed too good to be true- nope, wish I tried this stuff years ago. One of those rare products where it's not just marketing BS, it is everything they say.

Another helpful tip for you, you can use two strips of painters tape to pour from paint cans instead of having to use a syringe and having to clean it or toss it afterwards. On KZbin there is a 1min16sec video entitled "How to Pour Paint Without Making a Mess - Today's Homeowner with Danny Lipford" that shows the technique.

Scribbling a pattern over the board with a pencil makes sure you don't go too fast and makes it easy to stay on track if you start to drift off with whatever you might be listening to. Cleaning between sanding is a great idea. Also the cleaner is similar to mineral spirits, but definitely use a cleaner, it makes a big difference. And let's you see if you've missed anything with sanding. Don't skimp on the hardner...cure time with hardener was 7 days to full cure, maybe it's gotten faster. But it's not linear, at 2 or 3 days it's almost 75% or more and can be easily handled. Without the hardener is literally weeks according to Rubio. use the syringes for sure, it's an amazing method. Allows you to mix only what you need and then mix a tiny bit more if needed.

Not knocking anyone’s work style - you are obviously a lot more prolific and successful than me - but I don’t sand pieces. After planing smooth and flat, I just set my plane to take a feathery stroke off on the final pass and the piece is like glass, no dust, and wide open pores that soak up my waxes and buff like patent leather. I understand some people who do this professionally (unlike me) just don’t have the time to hand plane every board before assembly with deadlines etc., but in principle, I disagree with the notion that sanding is some necessary evil. I’d bet the time isn’t actually all that different between working through sandpaper grits and hand planing. Plus my risk of COPD is way less without all of that dust in the air.

If I wanted to build an outdoor table, what kind of wood and what kind of waterproof or weather resistant sealer or stain is better?

Sanding to 220 I get, that's usually where I stop. My problem is with going up to 220, then going back over the piece with 150 grit after? You're essentially undoing the 220 sanding? Why not just hand sand with 220 grit and call it a day?

Honest question here: why go to 220? Any reason not to go from 150 with a DA to 150 by hand? Also, any problem with getting a circular dip around the epoxy, since wood is softer than the epoxy? Edit: btw just finished the video. Wow, beautiful final product 👍

I screwed it up, When I sanded areas that I filled, the wood around the epoxy or glued spots was destroyed faster, so my wood is wavy, there are hills where those spots are and valleys where the softer areas of wood are!

I've used mineral spirits to clean but it takes so long to dry. Someone recommended denatured alcohol instead. It dries really really fast and seems to work just as well, as far as I can tell anyway. Thoughts?

Yes, that’s what i use. It’s also good when you’re doing epoxy after sanding, etc

Lacquer thinner works well and drys fast. It's just to get the fine dust off.

For oily tropical woods, acetone is best. But use in a VERY well ventilated space, if you like your brain cells.

Do you have to finish the underside of the bench top? Wondering if there have been issues with warping after applying finish to only one side with Rubio.

Any reason why you go 150 instead of 180? Or just do 120 then 220 and call it a day? Have you experimented to see if there is a noticeable difference?

Mmmm tips and tricks on a Sunday, my favourite! Honestly have never committed to going backwards in grits when sanding, but loving hard wax oils at the moment, always sand to max before applying. I'm interested to trying roughing it up a bit to see if there's any difference! 👍

It's a great technique. But, always handsand in the direction of the grain. It helps disguise any residual swirl marks.

@@richpeggyfranks490 Thanks for the tip, I imagine it aids bringing a bit of wood texture back to the wood too. But I guess it can depend on the desired finish. A polished mirror finish will require more coats and sanding between, but on long grain, with a more satin finish its nice to keep some of that wood texture

Backing off on grit is supposed to leave bigger scratches that will help the finish penetrate deeper and adhere better.
