1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Thank you for reaching out, Dave. Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Polyurethane provides great protection for painted interior wooden surfaces. If the bench is outdoors we would not recommend applying as the UV exposure will cause the finish to yellow and haze. Instead, for outdoor surfaces we recommend applying Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Spar Urethane.

by|Jul 8, 2024
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Thank you for reaching out, Mike. While Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Polyurethane provides a smooth protective finish to interior wooden surfaces, we would not recommend applying to cornhole boards due to the outdoor exposure. Instead, we would recommend our Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Spar Urethane as it provides the same smooth protective properties but can be applied to outdoor surfaces.
