Ceramic coasters

I used this product to topcoat ceramic coasters and it gives them a beautiful finish. It’s also durable and I think the coasters will be able to easily handle the heat from a coffee cup.

McKiddy Guitars

Absolutely amazing products!!! I've used on several instruments in my luthier shop with great success

Learning curve

Making the switch from trad. Nitrocellulose. Lacquer. Brite tone is easier to work with due to water based formula. Adjusting to a new hvlp gun as well…. So some trial and error making adjustments…first time produced drips… so sanded out and adjusted gun. Second time was great. Normal learning curve… product is good so far…. Waiting to see how it buffs out.

Amazing

I've done maybe 8 cups and this company and product NEVER disappoint even when it's not them effected by disaster they are always willing to help others out!! I love this company and what it stands for along with there product..

Brite tone projects

I am absolutely loving the crystalac brite tone!!! I am a stay at home grandma that watches her 2yrd old grandson. I love that I can make my tumblers, pens, and other projects safely in my home while I watch him. No need to have to step outside or use protective gear to use this product. Thank you Crystalac for this genius product!!!
