Varnish
Used this varnish on my oak front door. Loved how it turned out. It took 4 coats to cover bc it is a water based varnish. Haven't worked a lot with varnish so this was an easy compromise. Easy clean up too.

crystal clear, easy to apply, hard not to leave brush strokes on non-absorbing surfaces (fine on wood)
Ok, this product became one of my favorite, but not for the original intended use. I wanted to clear coat some counter tops in my sailboat, and wanted some UV resistance because you know, it's a boat, in Florida. However, as a clear coat on a very light uniform plastic surface (doesn't absorb the product) it was impossible to get rid if very tiny, hard to see (but still there) brush strokes). Most of the time the brush strokes weren't visible, but depending on the light, they would appear and I didn't like that.HOWEVER: I then tried the product on wood, and there was not the slightest brush stroke. PERFECT. Also, I love that it is indeed crystal clear and doesn't alter the color of the wood. I ended up using it on my teak and holly sole inside the boat, despite the fact that it is not recommended for flooring, for several reasons:- it is VERY EASY to apply.- it dries INSANELY FAST, at least in Florida. I could re-coat every 5 minutes.- no sanding required- doesn't alter the color of the wood, but beautifully enhances the grain (like when the wood is wet).- seals the wood / waterproofs the wood- doesn't yellow the holly wood (originally white) like teak oil or varnish or other clear coat would.The result is fantastic, took me less than 1 hour for a 30 foot boat, and can be redone anytime easily and quickly if needed. So who cares if it doesn't last 10 years, it is cheap, fast, easy, looks great, and requires no maintenance, no sanding, no mess when re-applying in the future, while protecting my teak&holly sole well. I highly recommend this to any boater who doesn't want to spend a week on varnishing or coating the sole and wants an easy 100% guaranteed perfect result (no strokes, no bubbles, no issues, apply right off the can as you want with a foam brush you CANT GET IT WRONG. LOVE IT.

ABSOLUTE NECESSITY for 3D printed respirators!
Fast-drying, non-yellowing, easy to apply, works over paint, easy to clean! And strong enough to keep the wrong glue working anyway. I CANT FIND THIS ANYWHERE BUT AMAZON and there is no comparable competition anywhere either.Making 3D printed respirator masks? The printer leaves a pourous surface that covid aerosols can easily slip through. This spar urethane fixes that.Loosely-attached strap holders that need to stay in a fixed position? Give them extra attention with this spray even after gluing.I know the directions say to allow the paint to fully dry... But i treated the first coat of urethane as another layer of aerosol paint. My paint was Rustoleum "Hammered" style. I applied urethane 30-120mins after the final paint coat, best results at 90minutes. 4 coats of urethane works great.My masks have threaded filter ports. I could not paint them and have the filter-caps still work. But a couple coats of urethane works great on the threads. I spray *Everywhere* that isnt threaded.I reuse the same painters-tape loops for each same paint color. And another loop for urethane.My only complaint? I NEED A BIGGER CAN. It only lasts for ~12 masks, if Im conservative with it.Other amazon-only products needed:B-style door frame weather seal (BULK IS GOOD) as mask seals. 33ft is lasting me enough for almost 50 masks. Several varieties available on Amazon.Food-safe, clear, Caulk-gun compatible "RTV Silicone" - used to seal the gasket on. Lasts similar to the gaskets.

Great Product, Need Better Shipping Packaging
I was unable to find this anywhere in stores so leave it to Amazon to have it! Was exactly what I was looking for and as described. Went on clear and smooth with a foam brush. I was pleased to see that they used some metal clips to keep the lid from popping off, however could have been secured a little better in packaging and there were several dents in the can.

spotty finish
The spray is very coarse and leaves droplets on the surface. These droplets do not flow or level, so the dry coating is spotty. From the first use I could see the spray was not a fine mist as soon as it came out of the can. The nozzle itself appears to be fine. The can was well agitated before use.I am experienced in using spray coatings. Very disappointed as Amazon does not allow this product to be returned even though it arrived only yesterday.

Great clear coat protection, even outside!
This is the best clear coat for craft projects I have found. I paint barn quilts and hang them outside and this product has never failed me and dries completely clear. Others I have tried yellow and change the appearance of the paint.

Great product but some shipping damage.
Have used this products many times before. Dried clear. Be careful not to shake can which introduces bubbles. Cans arrived quite dented and scuffed. Fortunately the safety seals held the lids on the cans.
