UV-cured wood finishes

At a $154 a bottle, it is not game-changing yet.  I use UV finish for small items like setting crushed stone and finish on rings.  I won't be splurging on a large bottle to finish a cabinet anytime soon.

After my limited experience with UV-cured adhesives I'd need to have some pretty good guarantees. I bought a smallish bottle of UV-cured goo, used it once with so-so results, but when I needed it a few months later the entire bottle had gone solid. The bottle was opaque, sealed, and stored at cool room temperatures. I'd really hate to have a $150+ bottle of finish go bad so fast.
