Polyurethane, Semi-Gloss","description":"\u003cp\u003ePolyurethane is the workhorse clear topcoat for interior woodwork: a film-forming resin that cures to a hard, continuous layer over bare or stained wood and takes the abrasion, spills and handling that the wood underneath cannot. Minwax lists this finish for interior projects such as woodwork, furniture, doors, cabinets and floors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe semi-gloss sheen sits between satin and full gloss. It reflects enough light to read as a finished, slightly lustrous surface and to wipe clean easily, without the mirror return of a gloss coat that telegraphs every sanding scratch and dust nib. On trim and cabinetry it is the usual compromise when a satin coat looks too flat next to painted work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyurethane is applied in thin coats over a clean, sanded, dust-free surface, with a light scuff-sand between coats for mechanical adhesion. Two or more coats are normal, with the final coat left to harden before the surface is put back into service. It can go over cured oil-based wood stain or directly onto sanded bare wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear protective topcoat for interior wood, applied over bare or previously stained surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-gloss sheen: a moderate light reflection that hides minor surface imperfections better than gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCures to a hard film that resists scratches, scuffing and household spills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinwax offers the finish in warm semi-gloss, gloss, satin and ultra flat sheens, so sheens can be mixed across a job from one product family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear, non-pigmented film that lets grain and stain colour show through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrushed, wiped or pad-applied in thin coats, with a light sanding between coats for adhesion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContractor-size container suited to floors, full trim packages and cabinet runs rather than single small repairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible over cured Minwax oil-based wood stain as part of a stain-and-topcoat system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterior trim, casing, base and other millwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCabinet doors, face frames and shelving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFurniture, tabletops and desks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterior doors and handrails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardwood floors and stair treads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindowsills and built-ins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTopcoating stained wood on finish carpentry work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minwax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyurethane clear wood finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheen:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse Location:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubstrate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bare or stained interior wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brush, foam brush or pad applicator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoats:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multiple thin coats with light sanding between\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 GAL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinwax\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Minwax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55112705245523,"sku":"P1SG","price":74.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/7743\/4195\/files\/minwax-1-gal-polyurethane-semi-gloss-p1sg.webp?v=1790734601","url":"https:\/\/arch-9365.myshopify.com\/products\/minwax-1-gal-polyurethane-semi-gloss-p1sg","provider":"ARCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
