GreenEZ's Furniture Shield is a water-based urethane sealer designed to protect and enhance clear or stained wood furniture. Available in Satin, Matte, and Gloss finishes, this product provides excellent scratch and water resistance with an easy-to-apply, eco-friendly formula. This guide will provide detailed instructions on how to use Furniture Shield for optimal results.


Step 1: Gather Materials

Before starting, ensure you have all necessary materials:

  • GreenEZ Furniture Shield
  • Protective gloves
  • Protective mask
  • Brush, ¼” nap roller, or spray gun
  • Clean cloths

Safety First: Always work in a well-ventilated area, and wear protective gloves and a mask to avoid skin contact and inhaling fumes.


Step 2: Prepare the Surface

  1. Clean and Dry: Ensure the surface is clean and completely dry before sealing.
  2. Sand if Needed: Lightly sand the surface to ensure better adhesion of the sealer.

Step 3: Mix the Sealer

  1. Shake Well: Gently shake the container to mix the contents well and ensure even distribution.

Step 4: Apply Furniture Shield

Using a Brush or Roller:

  1. Apply Evenly: Use a brush or a ¼-inch nap roller to apply the sealer in thin, even coats.
  2. Multiple Coats: Apply two thin coats rather than one thick coat for even coverage. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next.

Using a Spray Gun:

  1. Setup: If using a high-volume low pressure (HVLP) or low-volume low pressure (LVLP) spray gun, ensure the area is well-ventilated.
  2. Spray Evenly: Apply the sealer in even strokes, maintaining a consistent distance from the surface.

Step 5: Allow to Dry

  1. Dry Time: Allow the sealer to dry completely between coats. Refer to the product instructions for specific drying times.
  2. Final Cure: Allow the final coat to cure for at least 24 hours before using the furniture.

Use Cases

Clear or Stained Wood Furniture: Perfect for protecting and enhancing the finish on clear or stained wood surfaces.

Common Problem and Solution

Solution: Ensure each coat is applied thinly and evenly. Sand lightly between coats if necessary to smooth out any imperfections.
