Cheap 👍 Minwax PolyShades Semi-Transparent Gloss Honey Oil-Based Stain/Polyurethane Finish 1 qt 👍

Minwax PolyShades combines stain and polyurethane in one simple step. Each coat provides rich color and lasting protection while enhancing the wood grain. This product will reduce finishing time compared with staining with one product and protecting with another. PolyShades stain and polyurethane also allows you to easily change the color of your currently stained or varnished wood without stripping. Over old varnish you can change the color without removing the old finish or hiding the grain. For additional protection, without adding color, add a coat of Minwax fast-drying polyurethane or Minwax wipe-on poly. Using a natural bristle brush, dip approximately an inch into the can, gently tapping it against the inside to remove any excess. Apply a very thin, even coat following the direction of the grain. Make sure to maintain a “Wet” edge. To minimize the brush marks and bubbles after staining, tip off the surface by holding the brush at a 45 degree angle and lightly run the bristles over the entire length of the wood. Let the first coat dry for 6 hours or more. Dry time may be extended due to high humidity, low temperature and inadequate ventilation or if the coat is applied too thick. Rub the surface lightly with fine steel wool. Remove all dust. Brush on a second thin coat following directions above. To deepen the color, apply a third coat. To help ensure uniform acceptance of stain color and beautiful results, pretreat new or raw wood with oil-based Minwax pre-stain wood conditioner, following label directions.
