Minwax 61440 Polyshades Gloss Antique Walnut Quart

Product Description

The MINWAX COMPANY, THE 61440 is a one-step interior wood stain and polyurethane finish sold in a quart container. It combines rich wood color with durable polyurethane protection in a single application, reducing labor time compared to separate stain and topcoat systems. The 61440 is formulated in a Gloss sheen with an Antique Walnut tone. It is designed for use on bare, stripped, or previously finished interior wood surfaces and is applied by brush. Finishing carpenters, cabinet makers, and experienced DIYers working on interior millwork, furniture, and trim use this product to achieve a stained and protected surface in fewer coats.

The 61440 is suited for interior wood applications including furniture refinishing, built-in cabinetry, wood trim, doors, and decorative woodwork. The gloss finish provides a clear, hard topcoat layer over the stain color once cured. The quart size is practical for medium-scale projects or touch-up work. Note that this item may be VOC restricted in certain areas. Verify local VOC compliance requirements before purchasing or applying in regulated regions.
