Questions & Answers

Q:I’ve sanded red oak floors down to a bare, light blond ish color. I’d like to keep the wood as close to the bare color it is now. Is this the right product to use to keep the current look/color? And what finish, matte?

1 Answer

Answer This Question

A: Great question! Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Floor Polyurethane will offer a crystal clear finish that will not alter the color of the wood when applied as directed. The sheen choice is up to you and the final look you want to achieve. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

Q:Planning on taking the carpet off. I needed something to protect our feet from plywood/subfloor splinters until we can get a LVP flooring. Maybe months. Carpet got bunch of holes. Option- keep tripping or take carpet out. Would that work with subfloor?

Answer This Question

A: Thank you for reaching out! Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Floor Polyurethane can be applied to wood subflooring. Make sure anything loose removed from the surface and that any adhesive from the carpet is removed as well. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

Q:SDS says 270, thanks. How can it be “no odor”? Is something inaccurate or are the VOCs odorless? Thanks.

1 Answer

Answer This Question

A: Thank you for reaching out! The VOC level of a product will not always indicate the odor level of a product. Please also keep in mind that odor sensitivity can vary from person to person. Since this is a water-based product, Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Floor Polyurethane will have a lower odor than an oil-based finish. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

Terrible durability and adhesion

I have used this for hardwood floors and some furniture such as chairs and desks. Huge regret. In all cases, the finish has scratched extremely easily, and even after a year of "curing", the finish can in many places be peeled off simply with masking tape. All the wood surfaces were sanded well cleaned tack cloth before applying. Can was stirred well & used indoors where the temperature and humidity is favorable. 6 coats still thinner than one oil coat. I will always used oil based from now on.

This is never what we expect to hear, Chris. We need to know more to understand what may have gone wrong! Can you please give us a call at 800-901-0411, and we would be more than happy to assist you further?

Horrible

They looked great at first. I used 4 coats of this product and after a few months the coating wore off and my floors looked permanently dirty. They were so bad that I had to re sand and poly the whole floor 5 months later with something else. Very unhappy.

Like,but,use with caution...

Very happy with it,just have to be very careful with any area rugs you have,they must be put down with non slip Grippies! I fell down in my own kitchen the other day,my rugs had no non slip Grippies on and on one coat of sealer the rug went flying and so did I!

Zero Integrity - Do Not Buy

Absolute garbage product, do not waste your money. 5 days after applying the final coat on my oak hardwood floor I did a hardness test using my fingernail. The coating scratched off right down to the bare wood with very little pressure. Then after moving furniture back into the room I found the coating full of deep scuffs and scratches, again right down to the bare wood. After 5 coats and plenty of drying time this product does not hold up. If you were thinking about using this on your next project, think twice.
