I am sealing a craft acrylic painted wood project. Is this product suitable for this type of use. Non yellowing? Safe for exterior ect? Thank you

Yes I've used it on a number of projects and loved the results.I recently tried another brand of polyurethane that was sad to be superb.Not only cheaper but a superior finish,well all I have to say is you get what you pay for.In my opinion Deft beat all around,dries fast,easy clean up,brighter finish.

This is my favorite polyurethane - just wish it were more widely available. I've used it on exteriors, where - if you make sure to put good coverage on any exposed end grain - it's wonderful stuff. I also love that it's water based. As for yellowing, like any clear poly it will slightly change the color of bare wood, but if you put it over painted wood it should stay clear. I give it a big thumbs up.

I don't think this is the product you want for that application. I would go with an outdoor wood coating such as spar varnish, there are a few sold here but here is one: http://www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-207008-Marine-Varnish-1-Quart/dp/B000C011CE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422888899&sr=8-1&keywords=outdoor+wood+varnish

Its sealed pretty good so I guess you could use it outside. But they are not that bright so it won't work well if you need to brighten up an area

This seems to be the untinted version. Auson.se also sells a pine tar with a black pigment added to it for exterior use. Check out the product here. http://www.solventfreepaint.com

yes! definitely. I'd suggest something like acrylic that isn't water soluble, just for longevity. But painting on it works like a charm.

This is about as clear as varnishes/urethanes get. It will slightly yellow the wood whenyou apply it, but not very mutch at all, and it will NOT get more yellow over time like most polyurethanes do. I don't like the yellowed look, and very happy with this product. I have used it on both maple and walnut with good results.

I've used it on wooden items outside, but not in the full sun. I puts a beautiful finish on the wood, and may be worth treating every other year.

Yes, I would definitely seal the wood even with a clear poly acrylic to protect the wood though.

This would not be my first choice for outdoor use. My daughter has used a glue called "E-6000" for an outdoor project with good success. It dries very slowly, so on something like your project one would have to start at the bottom and do one or two rows at a time. It takes days for it to fully cure and stop off-gassing.

This product is not the best choice due to the humidity and water that will be present in that area. You would be better off using a waterproof varnish (found at a hardware store) or the Liquitex Soluvar Varnish.

Yes, you have to paint or primer over it when its done drying/curing. Other wise it literaly turns white and chalky from sun exposer. It a real thin runny type epoxy. So its difficult to keep mess to a minimal.

I would recommend weather sealing it first. It should hold up fine. But I'm in the hot desert. So I would find some clearciat spray and spray it. It should do just fine then. It is great quality

If you apply the sealer at the end, it should be ok. My projects are still intact and not faded or tarnished.

The product label says "for exterior use only." The cautionary statements warn to not breathe fumes, get on skin etc. The odor was quite strong but seemed to fade after drying so not exactly sure why it can't be used indoors. The product imparts a green color to the wood. However, it was easily paintable. My guess is you can use it inside if it is wood under sheetrock or plaster i.e. framework, but shouldn't be used on interior exposed wood such as a doorframe in the house. There is an email info@woman.com if there are more specific question to your situation.

No it is not waterproof, submerge it in water and it will be soft and will come apart. It may take some time to do so, but it eventually will. Varnish will do a better job of waterproofing the project.

There was no protective coating on our piece. We put several coats of cedar stain/weather-coa on our table for outside use. So far, it has held up well.
