Hard Seal, White 32 Ounce Container

I have an overactive immune system and react to all new furniture - it takes years for anything to off gas enough for me not to react to it. Thankfully Afm Safecoat Hard Seal traps the VOCs and prevents the harmful odors I react to from getting into the air and my lungs. The, clear, hard finish makes items more durable without changing their appearance. Highly effective product.

This really works to block out the new furniture smell. I was getting headaches from the smell.

Worked great to touch up kitchen cabinet spots. Blended well. Fast drying with little odor.

Very watery consistency but a good product.

So far so good.. bought this to "seal" in cross contamination from mold, particularly aspergillus and stachybotrys. I brought in a credenza from my contaminated apartment to my new apartment. Ended up having to get rid of the credenza but it contaminated the floor and wall where I had it. I cleaned and washed and sprayed a ton, but I was still reactive to it. Looked into paints, primers, sealants. I am now also very sensitive to VOCs. This product was great. It looks like very watered down white glue, low odor. I used a wide paint brush. It was easy to put on multiple coats. Dried fairly quickly. Seems to have done the trick in dealin sealing in the spores and mycotoxins from the cross contamination. I no longer react to the wall. Time will tell.

We have used AFM Safecoat many years ago and trusted the product. This time we used it as one of our windows became saturated due to ice damming, and the wood was very musty. Nothing helped until we used the AFM, and now the odor is gone. I am very grateful, as it saved us from having to replace everything. A good company. Just be aware that the finish will become glossy when dry.

My husband and I purchased a table set from a big furniture retailer. Metal framed with "wood" tops. The wood tops are made of MDF with a wood veneer glued to the top. When they were delivered, you could just smell all the chemicals off-gassing. This was no surprise. We purchased the AFM hard seal for the edges and backs, and the Afm Safecoat Acrylacq for the tops. The Hard Seal soaked in nicely, and after the third coat per the instructions, the MDF no longer smells. My worry though was that this thin liquid was going to make the MDF swell, but it didn't. The entire table set consisted of 4 tables, with multiple levels on two of them. They all went into the same room, and I can't smell anything. Afm Safecoat Acrylacq went on the tops where the wood veneer was. The veneer was already finished with something, so the Hard Seal would have been the wrong product. We chose the Afm Safecoat Acrylacq in satin, and the finish came out real nice after following the instructions. I'd definitely use these again on other things. I may up it to 5 stars based on longevity.

Been using this product for over 20 years. I use only nontoxic products in my home. This has worked out for me very well. I used it to seal luan that I have painted with acyrilic paint. sealed furniture I have decoupaged. Used it to seal the inside of drawers from thrift stores to block fragrance. and used it under my sinks to seal new wood. Very grateful to be able to still do what I love with out chemical's
