I didn't want to continue to sidetrack the Handplane thread, so I thought I'd start an off-shoot on the talk about Osmo Smart Oil, which is their new product that cures more or less instantly with the application of UV light, and has some really cool implications, like being able to apply finish and ship out a product on the same day.
There are a few brands of UV finish already on the market, but with Osmo's entry, they'll definitely be the manufacturer with the most name recognition.
Unfortunately, Osmo isn't currently selling this at retail - they're only selling it direct to "professionals." I filled out a purchase inquiry online and then traded a couple of emails with one of their reps, who covers the east coast (even though I'm in MN 🤷♂️). To complete the transaction, he had to call me for a credit card number. There was never any kind of verification that I was a professional (though I am a small-time pro with a registered business, etc), so I'm sure that anyone willing to jump through a couple of hoops can get their hands on it.
A .75L container, with all of the shipping and handling, came out to ~$75 bucks, which isn't too bad if you've bought any of their little cans of Polyx at Woodcraft, etc.
Anyway, I've got some Smart Oil on the way, and I'm excited about trying it out. I'll update with impressions when I get my hands on it.
