I applied the classic oak satin over the floors...1st coat over the damaged areas where the finish had worn off and second coat over all. It has held up well for 5 years...still with 3 45 to 50 pound dogs. There is now a very few small spots where the finish is wearing off that I have touched up. My pine floors look very old and have that rough rustic style that fits our colonial house perfectly. **Q: Can it be used over already stained wood? My cabinets need refreshing.** A: A: Yes it can. I used it on top of a cherry wood stain I did previously. Wanted to darken my cabinets to black. I lightly sanded the cabinets with sandpaper and applied one coat. I need to apply another coat so all surfaces are covered completely. But I love the results so far. **Q: There are mixed reviews. Should this product me used on finished steps to darken the color? If so what is the drying time?** A: I wouldn't recommend PolyShades for floors - especially high-traffic areas. I think you're better off with a standalone stain you can build color with followed by a clear poly to build the appropriate protection with (I used three coats on my dining room floor and it's held up pretty well for 10 years). I use PolyShades for things like non-floor woodworking and small musical instrument finishing repairs. Applying multiple coats of the lighter shades will add additional protection more than build darker color. Drying depends a lot on humidity and temperature but I like to give at least three hours per coat, with longer for the final coat. I'm not a pro flooring guy and they may disagree and know some tricks I don't, but that's been my experience. **Q: What is the approx coverage area per quart?** A: Can states up to 150sf per quart. ## Frequently Bought Together - Minwax PolyShades Wood Stain + Polyurethane Finish – ½ Pint, Espresso, Satin, Black - Pro Grade, Paint Brushes, 5-Piece, Paint Brush Set: Flat & Angle Brushes for Latex and Oil Paints, Stains, Interior & Exterior Home Improvement - Pro Grade Paint Brush Set - 3-Pack - 2" Angle Brushes for All Latex and Oil Paints & Stains - Home Improvement - Interior & Exterior Use --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/254381307-minwax-213974444-polyshades-stain-and-polyurethane-in-1-step-1](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/254381307-minwax-213974444-polyshades-stain-and-polyurethane-in-1-step-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-11-10*
