Wipe on polyurethane. Let me teach you when and how to wipe on polyurethane. This is a complete start to finish guide to achieving the perfect polyurethane finish for your project. Brushing falt surfaces is easy but what about round surfaces like spindles on a railing or legs on a table or chair? This is when wipe on polyurethanes come in handy but BE CAREFUL. Not only is a can of wipe on polyurethane 3 times the cost of regular polyurethane it contains thinners so the concentration of actual polyurethane in the wipe polyurethane could be cut in half. This brings the cost difference somewhere close to 6 times the cost of regular polyurethane!!
Cost aside if you brush half of your project and switch to a store bought wipe on polyurethane they probably won't match! Let's make a batch ourselves and rest assured they will match while simultanteously saving money. That alone is worth a cup of coffee (see below).

Please leave comments. I really do love to hear from y'all.
