There is no magic can that finishes furniture professionally without skill. Not using osmo ever again. The look, yuck.

Price
High cost but it's worth it to use a green product.
And because you may only need one coat, it may be good value as well.
Competitiveness
I bought three brands of hard wax oil and this is the one i liked the best.
I use a scotchbrite (tm) type, ultra-fine scouring pad that is equivalent to 1500 grit sandpaper.
Applying osmo over other oil finishes is where you can expect complications to arise.
More later on how to use osmo to repair an osmo finish or to repair or coat another brand of hard-wax oil finish.

To get the best out of it it is best to apply osmo using a scotchbrite ultrafine white scuff pad followed immediately by a buffin with another scotchbrite pad using an orbital sander on low speed and finally after 5 minutes a buff out with a terry cloth bonnet using an electric polisher

Avoid the cloth method as it will produce swirls and smudges and make it difficult to work osmo into the wood not to mention require more coats

If like me you try the cloth method and it is still tacky after a day just do a light sanding with 220 or higher and reapply using the recommended method
