Customer Reviews for Varathane 11.25 oz. Clear Semi-Gloss Water-Based Interior Polyurethane Spray Paint

We appreciate your feedback, Patrick! For the best results, we do recommend applying several light coats of Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Ultimate Polyurethane Spray. This will provide for a better finish than applying one thick coat.

We appreciate your feedback! Certainly, it is important to thoroughly shake Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Ultimate Polyurethane Spray prior to each use, and occasionally during use as well. The can should be shaken for no less than one minute after the mixing ball in the can begins to rattle. This ensures that the product is mixed well, and prevents larger particles from being sprayed through the nozzle.
You also want to make sure the finger that presses down on the nozzle stays clean and free of any paint. It is important to have your index finger centered on the nozzle itself. If your finger is too forward it can cause some blocking of the spray mist as it comes out of the can, which can cause sputtering or larger drops to be sprayed on the surface.

Oh no, we can help! There are really only a couple of things that can cause a milky appearance in the Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-based Polyurethane Spray, such as not stirring thoroughly before and during use, or there is moisture trapped beneath the finish. If the problem is moisture in the coating, you can try to wipe the surface down with a soft cloth and denatured alcohol. The denatured alcohol will sometimes draw the moisture to the surface which will remove the milkiness. If this does not work, the only other way to remove the milkiness is to lightly sand the finish and recoat. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 5
