Protect the beauty of your interior wood projects with Minwax® Polycrylic Max Protective Finish in Clear Gloss. The gloss finish creates a bright, reflective shine that highlights the grain and detail of your wood. This crystal-clear, water-based topcoat delivers durability comparable to two coats of conventional polyurethane in just one coat, helping you finish sooner with fewer application and sanding steps. Its non-ambering formula preserves the appearance of your wood while resisting scuffs, abrasion, chipping, water, alcohol and common household chemicals. Use it on properly prepared bare wood or over compatible oil-based and water-based stains.
Polycrylic Max dries to the touch in about one hour, allows light handling after one hour and is ready for normal use after 24 hours under recommended conditions. Apply with a high-quality synthetic-bristle brush for a smooth, even finish, then clean your tools with soap and warm water. Coverage is approximately 100 square feet per quart. Drying times vary with temperature, humidity, ventilation and coat thickness. For interior wood surfaces only; not recommended for floors or application over red mahogany stains.
