What is the difference between water-based and oil-based finish?
Water-based finishes dry clear, have low odour, and dry faster. Oil-based finishes add a warm amber tone, have stronger odour, and take longer to dry but typically build a harder film. For light-coloured woods such as maple and birch, water-based is recommended to preserve the natural colour.
