What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the exceptional high-gloss finish, describing results as beautiful, clear, and uniform with enhanced wood grain visibility. Most find it remarkably easy to apply with smooth coverage, fast drying, and minimal cleanup required. Many have used it for decades, citing unwavering trust and superior durability compared to alternatives. Several note that three to four coats achieve a professional, flawless appearance. A few mention the oil-based formula can yellow over time, though this represents minor concern among the largely satisfied customer base.

I have been using minwax for decades. They must of chang3d formula. I put it on a old table and it change the color. Now I have to resand it off and redo the piece. Very disappointed in their product.

Response from MINWAX

Thank you for your review, the Fast Drying Polyurethane will have an amber tone since it is an oil based product. This will be especially noticeable ...

Great product

Would Not Recommend

Looks great and dries quickly. Can be a little hard to avoid runs when applying with brush to vertical, complex surfaces like furniture or molding. I find it works great as a wipe-on to avoid that issue. Some people say it should be thinned for wipe-on, but I find it works just fine at full strength.

We have been using Minwax Polyurethane for years. Mostly, we have used it on the interior of our sailboat which has lots of teak. Easy to apply. Long lasting. Always our first choice.
