Let’s take a moment to appreciate how beautifully the wires going into the fuse box behind him are laid out. I’m thinking you can trust his details.
Yup, noticed the same!
😂 Glad I wasn't the only one ogling his breaker box!
that looks like complete crap.
😂
Noticed it too. Admire those details so much.
I will absolutely always trust a bearded man wearing a plaid shirt and a vintage Canadian roundel hat... thanks for your video!
Good Morning! Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate you taking the time.
Drop by my website baileylineroad.com for a visit sometime. You'll find lots of stuff there, including tool giveaways, articles and lots of other stuff of interest to hands-on, how-to people.
Bye for now and thanks for watching!

Thanks! I appreciate your note. I actually have two roundel hats. One is really ratty and old, and it's my favourite while working outdoors. I wore my "good one" for this video. I reserve it for special occassions, like going into town or making videos.
Bye for now,
Steve
I feel so soothed. This is like the Bob Ross of woodworking. :)
This guy is a very good teacher and communicator.
Thanks!
I came to this video a year ago to help me finish a frame for my daughter’s room and I’m back again today for a refresher because your videos were so helpful last time.
You’re such a good teacher!! I don’t know how else to explain it but your demeanor on camera very much feels like the grandpa I never had sitting down to teach me 🥹 you just seem like you have a very warm, patient personality and it shows on camera!
After 3 attempted applications with a brush, I learned what I was doing wrong! I'm looking forward to the 4th try now that you have explained steps so well. Thank you.
Great to hear!
This has been my go to finish for over 25 years and it has preformed great. From bath room medicine cabinets to tack boxes. I have brushed it and sprayed it. One thing l will add to this video is don't use it from the original container. Dispense it into a separate clean container and use it from there as not to contaminate the rest of the product.
I just have to say thank you. I have zero woodworking and finishing experience. I purchased an 8-ft Butcher's Block slab to make a computer desk out of. I had no idea that they had to be sealed and they came dry. I scrambled and started researching. I watched lots of videos but your video was by far the best. Simple straight to the point. I went out today and I bought water based polyurethane, sponge applicators and a proper sanding block. I followed your instructions to a T. I'm just about to put my third coat on and as of right now it looks phenomenal. You took a lot of the stress out for me and allowed me to accomplish what I wanted. Thank you so very much for the extremely helpful video ❤
Thanks for your kind words. I'm delighted my video was helpful. Send me a photo when you're done. I'd like to see how things turn out. My email is steve@stevemaxwell.ca.

The circuit breaker panel in the background is a work of art.
I've watched a dozen videos on this topic to educate myself as I start to work on a project, but this one is easily my favorite. Very clear and very detailed explanations. Thank you for making these!
I ha
Just built a unheated 3 season room in the northeast. I used knotty pine for the walls and ceiling. I am using a water based urethane satin finish. How many coats do I need to apply to protect the wood from yellowing and do I need to sand in-between coats? Thank you.
He really takes apart what one would think would be a simple procedure and reveals how it in fact is not.
Bravo!
Great video - well done explaining the whys and nuances of applying the poly, like how pressing the foam brush creates bubbles and also the reason foam is better than bristles. I am about to start applying and this was a great thing to see
I appreciate this video and the detailed instructions. Thank you !
All of His videos are top notch. Much appreciated.
Thank you, your videos helped me today to get my kitchen countertop done! 😊
Great job!
Great explanation! I made some cabinets for my kitchen and was very anxious, but I feel ready now. Thanks for uploading this. gonna sub and see what else you got!
super helpful video, very well done. had to do a double take because you look so much like my grandfather that for a moment i thought he had a secret youtube channel
Very nice vid! Super good at explaining, thanks
Thanks for sharing. Very helpful!
doing this exact thing with this exact product right now. This is incredibly helpful! Thank you.
Glad to be of service!
Gold .thank you .got all the info i need.great
Thank you for sharing this!! ❤
Have you ever tried Masters Armor from Old Masters. Sold as a water based lacquer, I believe it’s a self crosslinked urethane. It works like water poly apply quick with wet edge but it looks a lot closer to oil. Gives wood a warmer tone compared to water poly.
Great Job Very useful
Great video ! Guy ace suggested it...not many prople know how to use this stuff
Thanks!
Thanks, Bob Ross. This helped me out.
Great video; I’m so glad I found you channel as I’m just about to apply that exact Varathane product to a project I’m working on. I’m always helped by the visual and concise commentary to go along with it. New subscriber here!
Do you have any tips for maintaining wooden cutting boards? Thanks in advance for your help.
Nice video, I use this product but always spray on with a turbine sprayer.
Great video thanks for sharing! What are your thoughts on thinning water based poly? I see some that suggest thinning to help remove brush marks.
this guy rocks
Guy makes me feel like mom and dad came back home 🏡
is it possible to apply water based varnish over shellac ?
Is it okay to use this on a light chalk painted surface? The box says clear and no yellowing...
When applying a second coat and there are no bubbles or runs do you have to sand?
Great video! Why is it you never wiped off the "excess"?
Can you still fix it if I sand down a spot and color of that spot is different than any others?
Can I use roller for this?
Just a random question, but do you think the ultimate spar urethane water based is safe to use for planter boxes? Just wondering.
I was a little disappointed to find the video stopped before the full set of processes (or the bits you mentioned in this segment would be forthcoming) were covered. I suspect this is one in a series of tutorials, which probably cost to view. I certainly don't want you to give away your source of income, Steve, but I'd be less disappointed if it was described as a sample, so I could make a choice. Having said that, it was useful, as far as it went.
The next steps: light sand with 220+, brush off dust, tack cloth wipe down, repeat poly application. Do this for a minimum of 3 coats. Have fun.
Im new to woodworking but I thought foam created more bubbles in the finish? That is what im struggling with the most, bubbles. I did find going over it right away with a small torch pops most them tho, but that is a little tedious.
Is there a follow up video?
My wood top table doesn’t absorb any polyurethane like yours does so it looks super streaky.
Going the long way around the barn.
Thanks. I have a white washed red oak floor. And man... Can't even see the stuff going on.... For brush just make the angle really flat it's more about pulling the finish across than brushing it
"looks like watered down milk". That's one way to put it! We compared it to looking like something a bit different back in high school. Haha!
While water based urethanes are very convenient, I find they just don't make the wood grain stand out like oil based finishes. I find water based urethane makes the wood look very bland. Is that typical of all water based finishes?
Water based is typically used to keep the natural color of the wood, or if youve already applied a stain.
Water based is best for painted applications
I followed these steps for my unfinished knotty alder door. I just wanted to maintain the natural look of the door. I sanded, cleaned with vacuum and tack clothes, then applied the finish with foam brush. But the water based polyurethane applied kind of blotchy and uneven after coat #1. I havent moved on to sand and coat 2 in case I can fix this. Any ideas on what went wrong? Should I have applied a wood conditioner prior to my application of water based poly? I though wood conditioner was just for pre staining.
Hi! This is really helpful! Would you recommend using a foam roller for a larger surface like a table?
No
I put on a finish but ended up with some sort of white flak
look around where the legs or back of chair connected. Not sure what I did wrong. Did not come off with sanding. Not sure how to fix. Please help. BRE, your videos have been the more concise & thorough that I’ve found. Thanks!
Can you use a foam paint roller?
If you want bubbles, go for it!
you should pour a smaller amount into a cup to spread with the applicator...never dip the applicator into the main can of finish...you're contaminating the entire 1gl can.
this guy helped me mess up my table top. Im sure somewhere he meant well
I see your hat, go Leafs, :)
Can this water based polyurethane use on the wall?
Can filler be added for wall painting?
Yes
When you use a water based anything, there's way too much sanding needed in between coats and when it's done.
so you don't wear respirator for this? glycol ether is hugely toxic (in all water based finishes)
Nope. Real men smoke three packs of Marlboro's a day.
Talked 5 minutes before starting with no follow up video.
I like the part where you suggest not to use foam brushes , then use a bristle brush ..... ????
Water based varnish is awful 😂 easy enough on a small piece of wood try a front door 😂 dries way too fast just use oil. Some things are meant to be oil based
ah yes because everything should be amber, forget about painted surfaces
That was so stretched out, you belong to 19th century sir. In this age, you go straight to the point and make the video very short.
