Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane offers an exceptionally long-lasting beauty and protective clear finish for your interior wood surfaces. This aerosol spray makes application easy, especially for hard-to-finish pieces such as shutters, frames, trim, crafts, and other small projects. As one of the most durable protective coatings, it shields woodwork, furniture, cabinets, molding, and doors from scratches, spills, and everyday wear.   

The Clear Gloss finish dries fast to protect and beautify, providing a shiny, sleek sheen for a modern look on both finished and unfinished wood. Its long-lasting protective qualities make it ideal for use on hardwood, softwood, and parquet. Trust Minwax, America’s leading brand of wood finishing and wood care projects since 1904.   

Application Directions (Adapted for Aerosol based on general line instructions & typical aerosol behavior):

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is dry and free of old finishes in poor condition, paint, wax, grease, polish, dirt, or other foreign matter.
  2. Sanding: Sand to obtain a smooth, uniform surface. Remove all dust thoroughly (e.g., with a cloth dampened with mineral spirits).
  3. Staining (Optional): If desired, apply Minwax stain to unfinished wood surfaces. Follow directions for application and ensure stain is completely dry before applying polyurethane.
  4. Shake Can: Shake Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane spray can vigorously for about two minutes before use. Continue to shake for 10 seconds occasionally during use.
  5. Protect Surroundings: Protect adjacent areas from overspray. Wet overspray can be removed with mineral spirits.   
  6. Spraying Technique: Hold the can vertically approximately 12 inches from the surface. Depress the button fully and spray using an even, sweeping motion with slightly overlapping strokes to ensure a continuous film. On unfinished wood, apply sufficient material to seal open joints, edges, and end-grain.   
  7. Apply Thin Coats & Recoat: Apply THIN, even coats to avoid runs and sags. It is critical to Recoat within 2 hours. If you cannot recoat within this 2-hour window, you MUST wait a minimum of 72 hours, then lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit) and remove dust before applying the next coat. This ensures proper adhesion between layers. (This recoat window is assumed based on typical aerosol polyurethane behavior and previous products in this aerosol line; verify on can if different).
  8. Number of Coats: Apply at least three coats on unfinished wood and two coats on surfaces already finished for optimal durability (General recommendation for this product line).
  9. Curing: After the final coat, allow 24 hours before subjecting the surface to normal, light use. Full cure and maximum durability will take longer.

Product Questions

Q1: How shiny is the Gloss finish from this aerosol?

Gloss is the highest shine level available, providing a very reflective, almost mirror-like surface when applied correctly. It will significantly enhance the depth of the wood grain and color but will also highlight any surface imperfections more than lower sheens.

Q2: The can says it covers 100-200 sq ft. Is that realistic for an 11.5 oz aerosol?

The stated coverage of 100-200 sq ft for an 11.5 oz aerosol can is exceptionally high and likely incorrect; it’s more typical for a quart of brush-on polyurethane. A more realistic expectation for an aerosol of this size would be in the range of 15-25 square feet for a single coat, though the previous semi-gloss aerosol from this line stated 50-60 sq ft. Coverage depends heavily on application technique and surface porosity. Always check the can for its specific coverage guidance.

Q3: Is this polyurethane oil-based or water-based?

While this specific snippet doesn’t explicitly state the base, the “Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane” product line (including the Satin and Semi-Gloss versions you’ve previously provided) is oil-based. Therefore, it is assumed this Gloss aerosol is also oil-based, meaning it will likely impart a warm amber tone and require mineral spirits for cleanup.
