Never ever again.
Would Not RecommendTerrible product. Used as directed and ended up with a sticky, uneven mess that looks like the worst lacquer job ever. I am currently sanding this poly off to try a different product. Trust me, you're much better off getting separate stain and poly. Lesson learned.
