Questions & Answers

Can this be applied on top of primer?

Can this be applied on top of primer?
Asked by: Brian
I applied my on top of paint. I used two coats of primer, two coats of paint and three coat of the polyurethane on my kitchen table. I would test on something first. I would not stop at the primer. It is a different consistency than paint.

I want to use this over a untreated (no paint or varnish) pine bed. Should I apply a sealer first?
Asked by: bedmaker
Depends. It is a water base and as such without a sealer the wood fibers can lift and make a less than desirable finish. Most woods need a treatment of sorts before water based finish is applied only oil base will not lift wood fibers. Learned this the hard way. Even products that claim to be a primer with paint will leave a less than smooth finish. Of course the finer the sand paper i.e. 400 or 600 grit will have smaller pores and produce a smoother finish, but will not take to staining as well as a more porous surface. So if using water base stain then light sanding with very fine grit before an application of polyurethane or oil rubbed finish is applied will give a mirror like surface, but I digress.

Asked by: Caitlin
Happy to clear things up, Caitlin! Rust-Oleum Varathane Ultimate Polyurethane is a ready-to-use product and doesn't need to be thinned. We recommend applying it with a good quality, synthetic bristle brush, foam brush, or applicator for the best results. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 5

Is this product safe to use with food? My husband turned and carved a wooden spoon. Next, he sanded smooth and 'sealed' with epoxy. Is your Polyurethane safe for (3) final coat?
Asked by: McFish
Personally I would not apply any hard finish to wood used for food. I would treat it similar to a wood cutting board.

1 gal. Clear Semi-Gloss Water-Based Interior Polyurethane (2-Pack) is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 173.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from GREAT FOR WATER BASE This product will dry hard very quickly within 24 hours. Ready for normal use in 72 hours. Instructions say do not use roller due to air bubbles. You need for sure a SOFT brush to avoid brush marks. I deducted a star as this product is way too thin and can almost dry to the touch in 15 mins. On a large area you need to be fast. I learned the hard way and also learned the next time around to put a lot more on with a roller and a final smooth out with the correct brush. I did 3 coats and sanded lightly with 400 grit between each coat. I used this product over flat black latex paint but also learned the hard way DO NOT SAND YOUR FINAL PAINT COAT before applying this polyurethane. Although others think it looks great, to me I should have spent more time on the preparation of the MDF board I used especially with hole filling etc. This product no doubt will ENHANCE any defects you may already have.

The product was suggested by a blogger who had painted her kitchen cabinets with chalk paint and didn't want to use wax for the surface on her cabinets. She loved it and said that it didn't yellow. I have just completed painting my kitchen cabinets with chalk paint and used the product for my final sealer (instead of the wax). It went on smooth - has a soft luster finish similar to using the wax would have been on the cabinets. I have been using the cabinets for about 3 months. Love it. So far it is holding up well in my busy kitchen. I would recommend this product. Only down side is it comes in horribly small containers and it's hard to get a brush that fits in it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best ever Wonderful product with very low odor and a self-leveling, crystal clear finish. I was hesitant to go with a water-based poly, but I’ll never use any other poly for interior work again. I gave my project (pine tabletop) five very light coats before I detected any raised grain. However, after an extremely light sanding with 220 grit sandpaper, the 6th and final coat made the wood look terrific. Thanks for a great product.

I don't know who thinks this is a matte, non-reflective surface, but I'm in the painting business and this is a low-gloss satin sheen if I've ever seen one. I needed a flat, matte finish and I get shiny. Not good and wouldn't recommend based solely on that.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from THE most fantastic polyurethane ever This polyurethane is the only one I've found that leaves a true "satin" finish... not shiny, not matte. It spreads nicely, doesn't run, doesn't leave streaks. Once cured, hardens to a factory-like finish. Best. Stuff. Ever. Worth every penny. As a side note, the way I found this was because last year I used the Rustoleum Cabinet Transformations Kit for a project and loved the polyurethane that came in it. When I went to find the same stuff for my new project (I'm not doing the kit this time), I called Rustoleum and learned that this product is the same one that came with the kit. (Which I also highly recommend.)
