PSA: Tried water-based finish on a walnut table last week.

It dried fast with less smell, but I'm still on the fence about the sheen, so what's your take on eco-friendly finishes?

Remember my "eco-friendly" pine disaster that looked like plastic wrap? Yeah, jana_miller31's oak success makes me jealous. For your walnut, I found those finishes often dry to a cooler, flatter sheen than oil, which might be your fence-sitting issue. Try a satin instead of gloss next time to warm it up.

Tried a water-based finish on oak, loved the low smell.
