Chuck, TransTint is the brand name and is made by Homestead finishing products. It's available from Pianotek, Highland Woodworking, etc. (no specific endorsement there, just places where I pick it up.) I substantially thin any finish that I apply since I don't want them to have a "coated" look. I have a specific buffing wheel on one of the bench grinders dedicated to sharps and use black bar polish that I get from Pianotek.
