Applying a Finish

Oct 16, 2003 1 Replies

Hi



I need to put a protective coat on a shelf I have installed which has been painted with Emulsion.



I do not wish to have a gloss Finish and I would like something that isn't going to turn Yellow after many years, I would like to try something other than straight Varnish as I believe this may dis-colour.



Any ideas or recommendation, bear in mind that I shall probably be buying from B&Q or something similar.

I would try water-based polyurethane. It has all the plusses. Doesn't turn yellow. Fewer nasty fumes. Bulletproof finish. Easy cleanup.

YMMV.
