      A:  Happy to help. Varathane Oil Based Floor Finish Polyurethane is for indoor use only, it does not include UV inhibitors and will yellow outdoors, even in a roof covered, screened in patio. An excellent choice for outdoor decks is Rust-Oleum Wolman Raincoat Water Repellant Sealer, it is available in either a water based or oil based formula. https://www.homedepot.com/s/wolman%20raincoat?NCNI-5 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 6
