Been wanting a small wood working shop for 40 years so finally put one in. Currently just make small items while I learn the in/outs of all the machines.
What I need an experience woodworker to tell me is about Polyurathane OR a finish coat that provides a similar protection and the finish of poly. Right now I stain a piece of wood, let it dry then do a couple coats of poly. Is there a simpler way to achieve color and protection in one coat and not multiple ones? What exactly is varnish? Could it be a one coat process? Does it come in colors? How about poly, does it come in colors or tints? Sorry to be dumb on the finish coat subject but thats what im tackling this month :dance1:
