1 gal Minwax 13021 Clear Super Fast-Drying Polyurethane for Wood Floors Semi-Gloss

This product is amazing! Do not pay attention to the negative reviews! I applied this over dull 8 year old polyurethane floors. All I did was vacuum and wash them first, I didn't sand or scuff them. I applied it with a mop especially designed for water based polyurethane after first cutting in along the baseboard with a foam brush. Don't be freaked out as the product comes out a dark purplish brown but applies clear. Some reviews mention it darkening their floors but ALL polyurethanes will do that. If you have virgin freshly sanded floors expect them to darken. The fumes are noticeable so keep some windows open. This was a November day around 30 degrees so after I was done I left for a couple of hours leaving the heat on 60 °. When I returned 3 hours later it was still tacky. I left again and came back and it was completely dry to the touch. This was the 9 hour mark but I believe it was dry probably at the 6 or 7 hour mark. The floors look so nice that I'm not even sure if I will apply a second coat. I barely used any product as it goes a long way. I am guessing that the negative reviews have to do with technique (go with the grain of the wood), and applicator (use an applicator especially designed for the product). Do not vigorously stir or shake the can as this will create bubbles. I actually used it right out of the can (poured it into a disposable paint tray) without bothering to stir it. I figured Amazon's delivery process took care of that for me. I would think that humidity would also come into play with the drying process so a warm wet humid day would not be the best. Also I kept the can unopened in the room for a day so it would be at room temperature. I am a 53 year old woman, first time attempting anything like this. I already have friends asking me to do their floors! Who knew I would be going into the floor refinishing business??? Lol!

We have a 400 SQ ft living room did it all with more left over

Says clear but amber

I guess you get what you pay for. I am satisfied overall, but there are issues with this product. I think that it may be in the "not necessary to sand between coats" in the 6-10 hour range. My take is that their marketing department came up whit the idea and R & D tried. I ended up with very small bubbles that appeared as it dried. I think that these may have been air pockets that are present between the boards, that work their way to the surface. I carefully sliced them with a razor blade, and they are not noticeable now. Also the leveling process caused the floor to cure at slightly different rates, but that makes sense to me.. After a week it was dry but still very soft (actually I walked on it in socks the second day), it hardened up after three weeks. The weather was perfect 75-80 degrees with low humidity most of the time. This product seems good in the long run, but be very careful until a couple weeks have elapsed. If you need to get on it quickly, water based, or a different brand might be the way to go. Make sure you put felt pads on the bottom of your furniture and set {don't slide) into place. Overall my floors came out very nice, but I was really concerned about a week into the process. I followed all of the directions to a T, and sanded before the third coat. My 85 year old floors are beautiful again!

Going on two months with windows open during warm weather and the oil odor is yet strong. All recommended applications instructions were followed. DO NOT BUY. Use only water-based as they cure harder much faster. I suppose that I was persuaded into buy this horrible product from Amazon's typical discounting.

It truly is ultra fast drying and durable

Did fine, if you small amounts use the lamb wall applicator and sand in between coats with 220 grit the woods are different kind of wood but that’s what I wanted but the polyurethane matched

Yes, it is expensive. There's a reason for that. It works. This is a superior wood floor polyurethane. I will purchase again when I re-finish my other bedroom floor. Beautiful results.
