Minwax Helmsman Spar Urethane Aerosol Clear Satin 11.5-Oz

Love love love this product for places that get a lot of sun and/or moisture . Have used it countless times and it's awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally, a coating that my wife likes. I prefer my wood having a high shine to it and my wife prefers a dull look. I wanted to try a new and different product that I've never used before. I'm glad I tried this one out. It gives the trim a little bit of a shine, but it doesn't make it too shiny. I'm very impressed with the middle of the road shine and protectant. This is definitely my new go to protectant.

I was exited to be at the last stages of finishing a pub table. Just finished toning and wanted to try a more flexible finish being it was going in the garage. This finish is trash! I should have known better and stayed with a higher quality product.

I used spar urethane glossy finish for an oak table top. I used Minwax stain prep, Minwax stain to start with, sanding when directed by instructions. Long smooth stroked with a 2" brush does the job nicely. I think it looks great! I hope it holds up well to regular use. :)

I stained and coated 2x a 12" piece of oak, which I left outside and totally exposed for a whole year in Massachusetts. Snow fell on it, UV hit it directly. I covered half of it with opaque tape first … and after the year was over, washed it and removed the tape. There were *absolutely* no signs of aging, cracking, nothing. Couldn't tell which side had been protected. In my book, that is a A+.
