Rust-Oleum Varathane 200261H 1/2-Pint Interior Crystal Clear Water-Based Polyurethane, Water-Based Satin Finish

love this stuff, really easy to apply. i use it in my airbrush with a bit of extra water. Leaves a nice clear durable finish that doesnt alter the colour of the wood that I have so far used it on. also works great for sealing paint on acrylic.

Brilliant. Easy to apply. Goes a long way and finish great and robust.

Handy product to repair builder damage to our porcelain tile edges.

I have a 2000 x 800mm walnut stave desk (like a kitchen worktop), only 27mm thin which had already been oiled with OSMO a few times to seal, darken and protect the desktop and the oil finish was at least a week old before I tried to apply this. Reason for buying this polyurethane was that before I started to use my desk ‘for real’ in my office, I was a bit nervous about hot coffee cups and plates staining the desktop over the coming years, plus walnut is quite soft so could easily dent as things fall on it - but the OSMO oiled surface looked beautiful and I really didn’t want to change it very much appearance wise. So I really “ummed and arred” about whether to leave as it was, or add a layer of varnish/lacquer/polyurethane to add an extra of protection and take a risk on it altering the colour / natural look. I decided on this as seemed to tick all boxes - low odour, fast drying, colourless, water based and easy to apply. Having applied using a foam pad I can confirm it’s all of those things. First coat took about an hour to be touch dry everywhere, and recoated after two hours. Second coat was dry in 30minutes, but left about 6 hours before I put things back on my desk (instructions say 24hrs but hey, it’s a desk, not a floor and life’s too short). Yes, small tin. Very small tin, but after two coats I still have 80% left (yes, instructions say minimum 3 coats, but again, hey it’s a desk that’s already protected so just a little extra on top).

Good hard finish that doesn’t change the colour of the wood underneath Expensive but goes a long way

Way too expensive for such a small pot

This gives good surface protection when applied, but isn't the best product to actually apply, it seems to spread a little unevenly, even when used with a good quality brush..

Looks unlikely when you first put it on - very milky. But it dries (quickly) to a completely transparent finish, not colouring the wood at all, just making it look more vibrant. Other quite unusual thing is it's a genuine satin finish. Since all the EU regs started restricting what manufacturers could put in varnish, I've had trouble with products advertised as matte or satin which come out as gloss. This is the genuine article, and you can get a flawless finish by building up the coats and then sanding with increasing fine sandpaper. 10000 grade takes you to a perfect sheen.

Is geen 1/2 liter zoals in de beschrijving!
