The successful processing of a finishing material out of lumbang oil in the laboratory showed promises for its utilization and adaptation in the furniture industry. Following the criteria in the selection of cooperators, two proprietors were identified from Angeles City, Pampanga and Metro Manila [Philippines]. The promising two oil formulations, 1:1 and 1:2 by volume ratios of lumbang oil and paint thinner, were prepared and applied on their finished products. A post assessment was conducted on the previous cooperator in Angeles City, Pampanga, and it was learned that their present job calls for the application of varnish on their product lines. Even if the performance of the lumbang finishing oil has been found acceptable, market demand prevented its application. Likewise, a survey of prospective markets of lumbang finishing oil was also done. A representative of Sta. Ursula, Betis Modern and Antique Furniture Producers Cooperatives was interviewed and expressed interest in the finishing oil. Mr. Venancio Bandoquillo of Amlan, Negros Oriental was identified as the cooperator. However, the project could not be pushed through due to the Cooperator's lack of capital needed in the fabrication of equipment
