Answer This Question
A: Great question, Chris! Yes, Rust-Oleum Varathane Water-Based Ultimate Polyurethane can be applied to interior children's furniture. Our recommendation is to leave items in a well ventilated area for one week after painting. This allows for the most complete curing as well as maximum coating hardness. As with any coating product, care should be taken to ensure that accidental ingestion does not occur.
