Surface Preparation Bare Wood Sand thoroughly with medium to fine grit sandpaper, always moving in the direction of the wood grain. Remove dust with a tack rag to ensure a clean surface. Previously Finished Surfaces Sand to remove imperfections and gloss using 220-grit sandpaper. Clean the surface with a tack rag. Stained Surfaces Ensure the stain is completely dry before applying the polyurethane. Do not sand the uncoated stained surface to avoid uneven application. Note: For a finer topcoat, applying Old Masters® Oil-Based Sanding Sealer before the clear finish is highly recommended. Application Instructions Stir Thoroughly: Stir the polyurethane well before and during application. Avoid shaking the container. Tool Selection: Use a pure bristle or polyester brush, flat pad, or spray gun. For large flat areas like floors, a lambswool applicator is recommended. Application Technique: Apply in full, even coats along the direction of the grain. For wood floors, maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Drying Time: Allow 3 hours to dry to touch and 6 hours before recoating under ideal conditions. Overnight drying is recommended for best results. Sanding Between Coats: Lightly sand with 220-grit sandpaper to promote adhesion and a finer finish. Remove sanding dust with a tack rag before the next coat. Reapply: Two coats are standard, but high-traffic areas may require additional coats for optimal protection. Additional Tips Always test the finish on an inconspicuous area to ensure compatibility and adhesion. Avoid direct sunlight and extreme air movement during application to prevent uneven drying. Use mineral spirits or paint thinner for cleanup, ensuring compliance with local VOC regulations. Frequently Asked Questions How long does it take for Old Masters Oil-Based Polyurethane to dry?
