Great product! Simplifying the process of finishing that wood project. Stain and poly coat in one. Beautiful finish. A small can covers more than I thought it would.

Good Stuff; Use Sparingly
Would RecommendProduces a nice, shiny thick coat. Tricky to avoid drip marks and brush swirls, coats should be very thin. Sand lightly between coats. Three coats are needed for espresso color. A pint goes a long way.

Good for first time drainers
Would RecommendEasy to mix, coats went on easy will both roller and brush, and dried within a few hours with little smell (as long as the room has good airflow)

Learning Curve but Good Option
Would RecommendThis product has a learning curve. It must be stirred THOROUGHLY and the first coat must be VERY thin. I would say it is harder to use than a traditional two-step, stain/poly. However, it works very well on older wood or uneven colors (like poplar)
