Ive only used Spar urathane on woods I've stained. I cantbreally say much about tone but it seemed to look about like normal polyurethane. Maybe just a little thicker coats.
Good luck with the move.
Smoke and prayers. My area has been hit with tornados in the last few weeks and now we're getting "historical" rainfall. Tornados hit a farm close and did about $5 mill in damage.
I was in WV last month and they were just starting to recover from a flood. This looks like it could be worse.
