What Customers Are Saying
The Minwax Polyshades product has received mixed reviews. Many customers found it easy to apply and liked the color options, resulting in a nice, glossy finish. However, several users reported issues with uneven coverage, streaking, and difficulty achieving an even finish. Some also complained about the strong odor and long curing time. Overall, the product seems to work well for some users but can be challenging to apply properly, especially for more complex projects.

We bought this to refurbish a thrift store stool that had been painted over and over. With just one coat this brought out the natural colors of the wood and allowed them to really pop.

Covers existing wood stain
Works well over lightly sanded existing stain. But, it is darker than anticipated. It looks black.
