I have used this product for a number of years and am totally spoiled with the ease of use, will produce a glossy and smooth finish.

I've been using this for quite a few years, wonderful finish, just wipe on, dry light sand wipe on again, build about 4 to 5 layers for a really high gloss finish on your woodwork.

Looks as beautiful as the spray on, but no overspray. No mess. After the stain I put on 7 coats of this wipe on poly over a few days. Let it harden for a few more days, then buffed it to a beautiful shine. No wet sanding was needed.

I ordered warm gloss - that is what shows on the order. I received clear gloss. They are different products. Very disappointed I didn't receive what was ordered. My husband says he will still use it - but it is NOT the effect I wanted! Other than that complaint - Minwax products are excellent and we use lots of them!

Low odor, dries really fast and leaves a nice satin finish with very low shine

Facile à utiliser, il faut beaucoup de chiffons propres pour l'application, des gants pour protéger les mains, une zone de travail bien ventilée. Appliquer 3 couches pour une bonne finition, frotter entre les couches avec de la laine d'acier ou du papier de verre de 1000 grains pour enlever la poussière.

Now this wipe-on polyurethane worked out but only until I applied regular thick based polyurethane did it stick, what I noticed is wiping it with a rag didn’t work, a brush was more effective and until I applied the thick polyurethane did this really start to stick, I obviously wore a mask and gloves and since I couldn’t work outside I did open windows to let fresh air in, and when finished I used Mineral Spirits to clean the brush and obviously allowed it to dry and cure for 2-3 hours according to the manufacturer’s instructions. I would recommend this, but buy regular thick polyurethane so that way it sticks, by itself it just dissolved into the wood and gave it no protection so it needs thick polyurethane otherwise it’s more of an add-on for regular polyurethane. Still recommend this, not sure if buy this again.

Mahogany guitar (and table look great).I wiped the first layer on with an old white socks. Waited 3 hours and sanded with 220 sandpaper. This took much of it off.Put a 2nd coat on. Waited 3 hours, sanded with 220 paper and put third layer on.After a while I added a final, heavier layer on just for kicks.This mahogany was very "thirsty" and porous so it soaked up the gloss.Guitar looks great. I ended up with 2/3 of the can left so I dumped some of that onto a mahogany table. I used about another 1/3 of can almost. Table looks super glossy and "wet" like a piano finish. Nice!Guitar tip: use thick coats, I was going slow and building up thin layers (which is fine) but even pouring this out onto a table top won't leave any weird unevenness (no brush marks because it's wipe on).Guitar tip 2: after the guitar is done, take a clean white socks and run it up and down the back of the neck to smooth it out. I've gotten factory made guitars with a sort of sandpaper feel on the neck. You either play it for a few weeks and the palm your hand buffs it smooth, or use the sock trick.I put up before and after pics of the guitar, plus a pic of the table.I did 3 thin layers and 1 heavy layer 9n the guitar. I did 3 super heavy layers on the kidney shaped table.Gloss, 1 pint and I still have a little less than half a can left.I'm so glad I didn't chicken out and spray paint everything black.Store all the rags and sandpaper you use in a glass jar outside because when poly dries on a rag or sandpaper it can't spontaneously burst into flames! Even says so right 0n the can. When I was done I soaked the rags and sandpaper with water and threw them into a trashcan kept away from house and garage until garbage pickup day (it hit 91 degrees here so I was a little nervous the rags would explode-lol).I highly recommend this stuff. Get good rags though. Old black socks leave lint, old white socks, shirts or washclothes don't.Have another rag (that you're going to also throw away for wiping the item down after sanding).I never sanded the table and it is super glossy and even.I sanded the guitar between all coats, but not after the last one. The finish is smooth but sort of semi-gloss because I like it that way and stopped. I probably could have put a final super heavy coat on to get it line the table but I like it how it is now.Wipe on glossy gives so you many options. You can go slow and build up exactly what you want, or dump it on heavy and still get a glossy no-brushmark or spraymark even finish.So relieved these items came out nice.

This stuff flat works!!! Literally just wipe it on sealed wood and magic before your eyes! Easiest finish I have ever used!!! It does take several coats to build up a nice finish but the ease and hassle free of this stuff makes it well worth it since all you have to do is take a lint free rag and wipe it on! No streaks, bubbles, fisheye, nothing but smooth beautiful finish!!! Stuff is magic I swear!

This works wonderfully for any DIY wood project. It's easy to apply, dries very quickly, looks great and protects the wood well. It takes a while for the odor to disappear. All in all, a very good product!

I bought this to finish a guitar I'd been building after seeing someone use it on a YouTube video . The only real problem being it's not readily available in the UK . It's also expensive to buy but saying that you will get a lot of coverage from it . I'd stained and rubbed down the guitar body and started wiping it on with some lint free cloth . It didn't take long to dry as it's quite thin . I personally left it longer than recommended on the tin just to let it harden properly . I gave it a rub down with some 1000 wet and dry between coats and ended up putting four coats on . I have to say I'm pleased with the result , especially as it was the first time I'd used it ( I'm not a luthier or involved in woodworking ) . I was probably pleasantly surprised at the result more than anything and I'm already in the process of building another three guitars . I'd recommend this as much for ease of use as the results .
