Welcome General Finishes to Our Community

Introduction

Please welcome to our community, our new supporter General Finishes.

We are very proud to have our new friends "General Finishes" here among our folks and our endeavors. I have personally always loved the General Finishes brand, before I ever tried General Finishes I always thought them a company of quality and class, and I knew by word of mouth they have been making high quality finishes for a long time, no frills, no fuss, with Made in the USA quality and care.

Then I tried General Finishes "Topcoat" on my Cherry Rocking chair and I was thrilled with the results. That was three years ago when I first tried the product, and now here we are with the support of General Finishes!

I know many of you use their finishes, and I have heard very positive results from you, just one more reason to invite them to our community.

 

We called, they answered

Our supporters, I don't just mass mail an advertisement calling all brands to come support us, I do the research, "Made in the USA" grabs my attention, where they are based, their workforce, the product line of course, the management, the overall feel from the woodworking community at large, then once those quality attributes are ticked off, I invite them here.

 

Once that invite is made, our potential supporter will do the same to us, they will research who we are, then upon marking off their own check list, they decide if they want to support our community and our causes. Thankfully, General Finishes decided that our community is worthy of their brand. And yes, on a personal level I am very proud to have their presence. As it is with our supporters already here, I feel we have another very high quality and classy friend among us, supporting our ability to keep our forums open, and supporting our ability to help our veterans.

General Finishes has also gone the extra mile, they support our community as a whole, but they also signed on to support the Finishing Forums as well, that incurs an extra cost on our supporter, and we hope you will consider that when making your next product purchase for a finish. Thank you General Finishes for your extra support.

Your support

Given all that is stated above, I'd like to ask The Patriot Woodworker community at large, to support our supporters! They have outlaid funding for us, they are trusting us to carry their brand with respect, dignity and class, they are supporters of the veterans we help!

And for that reason, I hope you all will consider General Finishes for your next woodworking or restoration project.

 

In closing

We are very pleased and proud to have General Finishes aboard, with the rising costs of server and licensing fees to keep our community running, and with our eyes on the main objective, helping our veterans anyway we are able, the support of General Finishes is allowing us to branch out more and to reach out to our veterans more, and to also help them when they come calling to us.

Thank you General Finishes, and thank you Patriot Woodworkers.

I would say of the roughly 18 cans in my paint cabinet, 16 have the General Finishes label on them. Glad to see them as a sponsor, I like their stuff.

I knweq it, the auta corrocot on me andy is horifying too.

Autocorrect is my enema.

But back on topic, GF makes some good stuff.   In town, Rockler and Woodcraft are in the same block.   Wal*mart also carries a limited selection of GF stuff, as does Amazon.

I did not know Walmart carries any of the GF products, I'll have to check and see what they have. Otherwise it's internet order for me. We even have a GF dealer in town, but their selection is very limited, stains mostly.

Welcome aboard and thank you for supporting us with your great products!
