Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Fast Dry Polyurethane:
I used the satin finish over existing sealer. Dried overnite for barefoot traffic, hard after a day. Be sure to thoroughly mix it if it's satin, or you'll get a glossy finish. One coat was sufficient in my application.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Fast Dry Polyurethane:
Circa 1850 Polyurethane was used to refinish teek and holly floorboards from my 1966 Hood 43. Before each coat I lightly rubbed down previous coat with with medioum pad, cleaned with mineral spirits and tack clothe. Filtered Polyurethane from can and used foam brush for application.
I applied three thin coats of Polyurethane followed by two thicker coats. It just kept getting better looking with each coat.
I gave it 24 hours to dry in between each coat...in a warmer environment it would have certainly dried faster.
Now time will tell how durable it is.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Fast Dry Polyurethane:
I used this to refinish my kitchen cabinets and genuine oak floors in a 60+ year old house. The pictures speak for themselves!As long as the surface is prepared correctly, this poly does an incredible job of bringing out the natural grain of the wood. It self-levels and dries to a very hard finish. I am not a professional by any means but I think I achieved professional results using this poly. I would recommend it to anybody. It's a bit pricey, but worth every penny.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Fast Dry Polyurethane:
this is a great old style poly that is better than anything currently available in CA due to the asinine air quality control rules they have here. All the envio-friendly polys they sell here are far inferior. I use it on furniture and cabinets but wouldn't hesitate to use it on a floor. It levels great and sets up and actually hardens as opposed to the locally sold polys. The dry times on the label are on the aggressive side but if you have the right temperature, application, air circulation and humidity they are realistic but I agree that for the average environment and application more time is generally required. 90% of my applications are spray and 10% brush or wipe. If I did a floor I would roll it and brush edges/small areas.

Comments about Circa 1850 Circa 1850 Fast Dry Polyurethane:
Great for indoor use, best to have good clean finish for strong adhesion. Use as directed! I agree with other posts, 3 to 4 hours is probably pushing it on dry time.

Product works as advertised except there is no way it dries in 3 or 4 hours. If you want three coats try about 12 hours between each coat.

We used this on our stairs that are wood. It dries fast and gives a gloss and shine that regular poly cannot. We used the high gloss.
