Application Tips (General Guidance – Refer to Can for Full Instructions):

1. Ensure the surface is dry and free of old finishes in poor condition, paint, wax, grease, polish, or dirt.
2. Sand to a smooth, uniform surface. Remove all dust with a cloth dampened with mineral spirits.
3. If desired, apply Minwax stain first, allowing it to dry completely as directed.
4. Stir Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane thoroughly before and during use. Never shake, as this can create bubbles.
5. Apply a THIN, even coat using a high-quality natural bristle or foam brush.
6. For the smoothest finish, lightly sand between coats (once fully dry as per recoat times) with 220 grit sandpaper. Remove all sanding dust.
7. Apply a second coat. If a third coat is desired for maximum durability (especially on floors), repeat sanding before the final application.
8. Allow 24 hours after the final coat before light use; allow longer for full cure before heavy use.
