Types of Surface Finishes

• Oil-modified urethane is easy to apply. It is a solvent-base polyurethane that dries in about eight hours. This type of finish ambers.
  
  
• Water-based urethane finishes are clear and non-yellowing. They have a milder odor and dry in about two to three hours.
  
  
• Penetrating Stain - This finish soaks into the pores of the wood and hardens to form a protective penetrating seal.
