What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this polyurethane for delivering a beautiful, smooth, durable finish with excellent clarity and professional appearance. The semi-gloss and satin options are particularly favored for their aesthetic appeal. Users consistently highlight how easy it applies, dries fast, and self-levels for minimal effort. Many report decades of reliable performance and deep brand loyalty. Proper technique—sanding between coats and applying multiple layers—is emphasized as essential. A small number mention yellowing on lighter woods or confusion over finish terminology, but most consider this a trusted, long-term favorite delivering superior results.

Works exactly how a clear coat polyurethane should

Would Recommend

I had a built in bookshelf made & finished it with this to try to match the shelf to my hardwood floors. It was easy to apply & for being polyurethane, the fumes were bearable. Of course have good air flow & ventilation in the room. I'm letting it cure for about 30 days before I put books on the shelf to be on the safe side. It looks beautiful.

Nice finish with a bristle brush.

Would Recommend

Works great when applied with a bristle brush.The brush strokes level out and disappear. I don't recommend using a foam brush; it creates bubbles that dry and must be sanded out. Nice finish after at least 2 coats, much more economical than the spray. It's a beautiful clear finish that looks durable after several coats.

Beautiful finish

Would Recommend

Best deal for a quality interior oil based. Cheaper than exterior. Oil so it looks best. Interior so it goes on easy. Still have to clean it up like oil based unfortunately. Last job I used chip brushes and threw them away.
