Readily available urethane at doorstep
This is a standard mass market spar/polyurethane. I use it for wood. It is what I have chosen rather than other readily available and deliverable to doorstep after online order. For my non-exquisite purposes it is fine. I have no complaints and have found no drawbacks to my DIY purposes.

Great product
Only bad thing is it has a very very strong odor, definitely make sure wearing proper PPE equipment.

Disappointing Durabillity
Didn't seem to be very durable for my exterior use. Applied multiple coats each year for two years but I found I still had to do it every year.
