Easiest, fastest finish? - Gary G™ - 09-03-2023 In case a finisher doesn’t venture downstairs…. Installed a pine T&G wall running horizontally in a public building. Mrs G is going to finish it today after I tell her what to use. No stain. Only available source for finish is local HD. The question is will a Water-based poly need a seal-coat? I know pine can blotch, but if there’s no stain—only a clear WB Poly—is blotching a concern? RE: Easiest, fastest finish? - Gary G™ - 09-03-2023 OBE—she’s well on the way.

I just rolled it on and used a brush in the grooves. I found end grain areas around knots can soak up the finish, so several coats will be necessary. Blotching wouldn't be an issue. RE: Easiest, fastest finish? - Gary G™ - 09-09-2023 This was completed before any responses. It worked fine w/o sealing. No blotches. |
