Valspar Polyurethane Clear

I started to play with this stuff. I like it. Similar to another product but I also find that there is several typs of Activators that can be used with it. Fast to slow. Data sheets say no flex agent needed. I have put several coats on a blank and used the fast activator. I have ordered the slow and think it will work better. Finally some thing that goes on easy, clear, is flexible, hard as a rock, and I have some control of the set up time in different conditions.

This needs the Activator for it to dry But does not need the flex agent so I guess you would call it a two part Here is the site where I got mine. [www.autopaintdirect.com]
