How to Apply Varathane Oil Based Polyurethane for Interior?

Surface Preparation

Previously Finished Surfaces – To ensure proper adhesion, surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of wax, grease, oil, shellac, lacquer, mildew, and polishes. Remove wax with a wax stripper, shellac with a paint stripper, and mildew with a solution of 10% household bleach and water. Old finishes in poor condition should be removed. Sand using 150-220 grit sandpaper to obtain a smooth surface. Remove all sanding dust using a vacuum, tack cloth, or cloth dampened with mineral spirits

Unfinished Surfaces – Sand using 150-220 grit sandpaper and remove all sanding dust using a vacuum, tack cloth, or rag dampened with mineral spirits. If a filler or putty is used, make sure it does not contain wax allow enough time for it to dry thoroughly.

Stained or Painted Wood – Follow manufacturer’s directions for application of the stain or paint. Make certain the surface is thoroughly dry before applying Varathane Oil-Based Polyurethane. Using this polyurethane over white or lightly painted surfaces could cause discoloration. Refer to the manufacturer’s label for dry times. For best results, use Varathane Premium Wood Stains.

Application

DO NOT SHAKE. Apply using a good quality natural bristle brush or applicator. Allow the finish to dry 8 hours before re-coating. Re-coat only when previous coats have dried clear and feel hard. The coating should no longer feel tacky to the touch. If any coat has dried more than 12 hours, lightly sand before applying another coat. A minimum of two coats is recommended. Allow the finish to dry 24 hours before light use. Wait 3 days before subjecting the surface to normal usage.
