    Default Kunos oils - bivos over livos?

    Hi folks,

    I am a big fan of Kunos Livos, and just recently acquired some Bivos to try out. Anyone have any experience or theories about how well a top coat of bivos would go on 2-3 coats of livos? Thinking a little extra wax content once the timber's sealed might not be such a bad idea...

    Cheers,

    Danny

    Might be able to answer my own question after finding the bivos technical data sheet - it specifically suggests using it over timber finished with kunos livos. Will give it a try on some pepper grinders I'm finishing over the next few days!

    Gave this a try on some new guinea rosewood grinders. Visually it's a little glossy and deeper colour than before the bivos, I think - I think the livos and bivos is a good combo, may well become part of my normal routine!



    Cheers,

    Personally I like the way it feels.

    So silky

    Sorry guys...did not see this post. Would be great to have more time to check out all the posts on this forum.
    Yes, since the products are of a similar ingredient base, one can apply the various Livos products in various combinations.
    Thanks Danny for the post.
