What Customers Are Saying
The Minwax PolyShades product received mixed reviews. Some customers found it easy to use and reported a beautiful, shiny finish that enhanced the wood grain. However, many others struggled with uneven, patchy, and rough results, describing the application as extremely difficult. The product also had issues with strong odor. Overall, the reviews suggest the product requires significant skill to apply successfully, and customers may be better off using a separate stain and polyurethane for more reliable results.
