Flat maybe what you are after but I like 30% sheen for ease of cleaning in the kitchen or semi, 50%. They can match any painting company's color into the finish. Must be spray on but self leveling. Forget about tung oil and all that old fashion finishes. Order it tinted to get that old fashion amber look on Maple if you like. Acquaduro 2k Poly. It can applied straight from the can or use a primer for one less coat. I always use their primer and have it tinted. One of my men is trying to teach my old finisher how to use this stuff on my job now. Can't seem to teach or convince an old dog new tricks since he still want to buy the off the shelf clear finish at home centers which is far inferior in every way. Its over 100 bucks a can. Let me know if you want more info.
Thanks! I will look for that here.
