Minwax 34444 Polycrylic Protective Finish 11.5 Oz Aerosol

Product Description

The Minwax 34444 is a water-based Polycrylic Protective Finish in a semi-gloss sheen, packaged as an 11.5-ounce aerosol. It lays down a hard, crystal-clear topcoat designed to protect bare wood, stained wood, and painted surfaces. The fast-drying formula keeps project downtime short, and the low-odor, water-cleanup formulation makes it practical for use in occupied or low-ventilation workspaces. Finishing contractors, cabinetmakers, and skilled DIYers apply this product when a clear protective coat with minimal ambering is required, particularly over light-toned wood species and light stain colors.

This finish is suited for interior wood surfaces where a durable, non-yellowing topcoat is needed. Its clarity makes it especially well-suited over light woods and Minwax Water Based Wood Stains, preserving the natural or stained tone without introducing a warm or amber cast. The aerosol delivery provides even coverage on contoured profiles, trim details, and furniture components that are difficult to coat with a brush or roller. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial interior finishing applications.
