SBR as door varnish?

[Harold Davis]

Is there any problem with using SBR as a single-coat, high-gloss, hardwearing varnish for internal wooden doors?

What, apart from the fact that it isn't high gloss or hard wearing?

It's neither. Very silly idea

It isn't better than varnish, or perhaps you have a specific type in mind which I haven't encountered.

Correct. It still has two distinct forms, thought. One as the "bulk" rubber which is rubbery. The other as the emulsion of finely divided particles in water, in which form it looks and behaves rather like PVA, except that it is *much* better in applications like mortar mixes.

Still can't say I would fancy using it as a varnish, though.
