Garnet is a ruby-ish looking reddish color. Kinda changes depending on what pound cut you make, heavier is slightly darker IMHO. I like heavier 2 to 3 pound cut, for Garnet, and lighter 1/2 pound, to 1 pound for the light colored stuff. 

At 1/2 pound to 1 pound it works great as a sanding sealer. primer coat. I just do heavier on Garnet for the richness in the color. It does dry a bit slower than the lighter cuts.
