Description
Product Overview
Minwax Wipe-On Poly is an oil‑based polyurethane formulated for a satin finish that combines durability with a hand‑rubbed look. Packaged in a 16 fl oz pint, it covers up to 62 ft² per container, providing a clear, hard film that resists water, household chemicals, food stains, and general wear. The satin sheen offers a subtle glow without the high shine of gloss, making it suitable for a wide range of interior wood applications. Its low viscosity allows effortless wiping with a clean cloth, eliminating the need for brushes and reducing the risk of drips.
Usage

Apply a thin, even coat with a lint‑free cloth, let it dry for 2‑3 hours, and recoat as needed for a smooth, durable surface. Ideal for DIY homeowners, professional finishers, and hobbyists seeking a quick, mess‑free finish that stands up to daily use.
