MinwaxWater Based Oil-Modified Polyurethane, Warm Satin, Clear, 1 Gallon

This product is awesome no strong oil smell it's water clean up and it goes on very nice. Great quality easy to use.

Fast drying and ready for the next coat in 2 hours. I have been using this type of polyurethane for many years with great results.

Important mahogany stairs project, would have paid for a premium varnish but this less expensive option was specifically recomended for floors and seemed to have similar reviews to others that were up to twice as expensive.Details: I am in Kalifornia so can't even get some alternative products. Coating individual stair treads, indoors so working time was not an issue. Used foam brush on final coat, clean up with water was great, nice satin finish. Can't speak to durability yet but it is a yellow product so might hesitate on very light wood. I also like the Helmsman water based varnish which is very clear, (once i got used to the VERY short working time) so this slower cure hybrid was actually easier.

I have used this product for approximately 6 years and it has been such a solid product. It really is user friendly - meaning anyone can use it and get good results. What I like about it is that It seems to level out even if you accidentally apply too much material it levels out nicely…. And it drys quickly. I’ve seen product hold up in direct uv and wet conditions.I have noticed however that this newly labeled “warm satin” is definitely on the low end of sheens - it’s not like your typical satin sheen. Also, be prepared to wash your brush well- soap and water … but you still end up with a stiff brush because of the oil component in the material.In all - a great product!! I would recommend this product

I had used this product's Clear Satin before and loved it. When I went to make my 3rd purchase only the "Warm" Satin was being offered at all the places I had checked. I thought that Minwax must have renamed it, and so I purchased 2 gallons. After trying my first few pieces of wood I immediately saw the difference. Unfortunately it was not what I wanted. I was unable to return the two gallons because the acceptable time for returns had passed before I arrived at the finishing stage of my project.

I love this polyurethane! It really worked great on my old wood floor.

This product is so easy to apply and looks amazing!

I am a professional painter and prefer this material. Very happy with the quality.
