Premium quality varnish from the makers of the REvolution 3 Glue.
Professional players need to keep a consistent weight to their blade. Perspiration can cause a handle to become heavier by 5-10 grams within a year. This changes balance and feeling of the blade. Sealing your blade, especially the handle, helps keep the weight of your blade intact.
Besides, it also helps prevent delicate blade surfaces such as hinoki surfaces, from splintering when removing your rubber sheets.
Apply 1-2 thin layers of lacquer evenly to the blade surface with the included reusable/washable sponge.

It works well. Not as easily as others, but well enough. It dries quickly. It seals very well. Please be careful if you apply two layers or more. You may have difficulty with the rubber stain glued to the blade. That happened to me, and then I had to use sandpaper to lightly remove one layer of varnish. Also, please pay attention to your blade's top ply. Depending on the type of wood used in the top ply, you may have to apply more sealant. If the top ply of your blade is a softer, more porous wood, it will be more thirsty, it will absorb the sealant more quickly and you would need to apply a little more than usual.

Good for keeping a blade's playing characteristics the same as well as protecting it from water based glue. use this on the handle and your handle will never get sweat stains, however it may have a glossy feel which many players dislike on a handle.
After using this on the blade face, it's a bit harder to get rubber to stick onto the blade and you may need an extra layer of glue.

Does what its supposed to do. I cannot tell how much this laquer changes the characteristics of a blade. It may be too subtle, and that I'm too noob-ish.
