Rust-oleum 214551 Varathane Floor Finish Semi-gloss 1 Gal

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 214551 is an oil-based, premium polyurethane floor finish formulated for hardwood and wood flooring surfaces. It delivers a semi-gloss sheen and is designed for fast dry times, reducing downtime during flooring projects. Sold in a 1-gallon container, it is applied by flooring contractors, finish carpenters, and experienced trade professionals seeking durable, long-lasting results on interior wood floors. The oil-based formula penetrates and bonds to the wood surface, providing a tough protective coat against foot traffic, scuffs, and moisture.

This floor finish is suited for residential and light commercial interior flooring applications. It is intended for use on bare or previously finished wood floors where a semi-gloss oil-based topcoat is specified. Note for South Coast California and select CARB-regulated counties: consult local VOC compliance requirements and use the designated compliant product TV 124-601 in place of this formulation where required by regulation.

Compatibility

Designed as an oil-based polyurethane topcoat for interior wood and hardwood flooring surfaces. Not intended for use over water-based finishes without proper preparation and manufacturer guidance.

Installation Notes

Application is performed by flooring contractors or qualified finish professionals using appropriate applicator pads, lambswool applicators, or brushes rated for oil-based coatings. Ensure adequate ventilation throughout application and drying phases, as oil-based polyurethanes produce solvent vapors. Clean tools with mineral spirits or paint thinner immediately after use. Allow each coat to fully cure per product label direction before light sanding between coats.
