Has anyone tried this grain filler?

CrystaLac Wood Grain Filler

Does it seem to work pretty well?

Thanks,

S.

I use it on bowls that have coarse grain. I never use stain so can't
comment on that. I sand to about 220 blow it off and wipe in the
crystallac using a gloved finger. When dry I start sanding at 220 and
go from there. It does clog sandpaper, but often is easy to remove
from it using a soft wire bristle brush. The wood finished this way
seems to have a lighter color than if no filler was used.

I'm actually using it right now on oak to smooth out the grain before
topcoating. Seems to work ok, I needed to use more than 1 coat to get it
really smooth. Used it after staining. Mark
