Ratings & Reviews for Minwax Polycrylic Max Water-based Clear Transparent Gloss Interior Stain ( 1-quart )

Good protective finish for wood projects

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Minwax Polycrylic Wax is a good option for protecting wood surfaces. It's easy to apply, especially if you're new to finishing projects. The finish dries quickly, so you can apply several coats in one day. Just make sure to work quickly to avoid brush marks. Since it's water-based, the smell isn’t strong and cleanup is easy with just soap and water. While it's durable enough for furniture and cabinets, it might not be tough enough for floors o...

Oil base has better finish

Not the finish I expected

Great Product for DIY Projects!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the Minwax Polycrylic Max to be very versatile. I used this to give my coffee table a new look and finish. This was not real easy to use. It's very difficult to use when it is really hot outside. It's best used when it is cooler outside. I found it's best to use outside for ventilation. This is an exceptional product. It does require patience.

Works great

Dries quick and does not streak

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used this to finish an old door I stained and turned into a table. Once it was fully dry, the initial smell was nearly gone. It was fully gone within a weeks time. It was easy to apply and didn't streak. It looked great and truly brought out the features of the grain in my project.

The perfect finish on my home projects!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Minwax Polycrylic Max was exactly what I needed to finish a project. The application was smooth and easy. Now that it’s dry it appears to be durable and long lasting. The price is right for both small and large projects. No chemical scent and easy to recognize packaging will drive me to purchase again in the future!

Practice first!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really tried to use Minwax Polycrylic Max to give a protective coat to a painted table. It was a little difficult for me to get a smooth level finish. It dries very quickly so be sure to work in small areas. I probably tried too large of a coverage area to start with. It dries clear with no change to the color. The table was coated with a water based latex paint so I can't say if it would work over an oil based paint or stain. It did leave a ...

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product applies easy. It seems durable but time will tell more. Don't have a bad smell like others do. It seems to be very cheap for what the coverage is. I will recommend it to everyone.

Works perfect

Easy to use DIY Friendly Clear Coat

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This clear wood acrylic coat is an excellent product. The odor isn’t too strong and with a quick dry time you can easily add multiple coats in a short period of time.

Very easy use product and good quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light odor and very nice coverage love this product I recently made a little jewelry holder and this clear protection helps immensely not to mention easy to use.

Beautiful satin finish with minimal smell and seamless application. Perfect for DIYers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently used this clear wood stain and was quite pleased with the results. The product arrived perfectly packaged with no spills, and the tin was easy to open. Although the stain is white in the container, it goes on clear, providing a nice, subtle finish. There is a slight chemical smell, but it isn't overwhelming. Initially, brush strokes are visible, but they disappear once the stain dries. I applied it to some unfinished bamboo coast...
