I was unhappy at first for a few reasons.

(1) Learning a new way to do something can be frustrating (maybe because I did't think I would work, and was out to prove it wouldn't work).

(2) because it goes on so thin you can't hide a poorly prepared surface like you can with a thicker coat of varnish. That was an instant turn off. It takes a few coats to get over that.
