🪵 Homemade Wood Varnish Using Coffee & Glue

April 22, 2025 by BMA24

🧰 Simple, Affordable & Super Effective – Woodworkers’ Secret!


🛠️ Materials You’ll Need:

  • 1 tbsp coffee grounds (instant or regular, strained if needed)
  • 1 tbsp PVA white glue (important: must be PVA glue)
  • 2 tbsp hand sanitizer (must contain alcohol)

🧪 How to Make It:

  1. Add 1 tbsp of coffee to a small container.
  2. Add 1 tbsp of PVA white glue.
  3. Add 2 tbsp of hand sanitizer (the alcohol creates a protective film).
  4. Mix thoroughly until fully blended.
    • If you’re using ground coffee (not instant), strain the mixture to avoid clumps.

🖌️ Application Instructions:

  1. Take a clean brush and apply the mixture to your wooden surface.
  2. Let it dry for a few minutes, then apply a second coat if desired.
  3. Enjoy the natural shine and warm tone the coffee gives the wood.

✅ Why This Works:

  • ☕ Coffee adds natural color and warmth
  • 🧪 Glue acts as a binder and sealer
  • 💧 Hand sanitizer helps preserve and protect by forming a durable coating

✨ Benefits:

  • Protects from termites 🐜
  • Leaves a beautiful finish and shine 🌟
  • Super affordable and eco-friendly
  • Perfect for DIY wood projects, furniture touch-ups, or rustic crafts
