Cabinet Refinishing LIVE! 2K Poly Coatings.

What happens here

The host discusses his move away from oil-based and oil-modified products due to difficulties in obtaining them, their tendency to yellow over time, and becoming brittle. He now exclusively uses water-based 2K polyurethanes for furniture and cabinets, praising their durability and environmental benefits.

Goal: Explain the advantages of water-based 2K polyurethanes over oil-based paints.

for doors, trim. So, um I don't use any oil based products anymore at all. For one thing, they're hard to get. Um oil modified products, you know, you can get which some of them are pretty cool. I've used them in the past, but I've migrated away from all oil based products, oil modified products, and gone to, you know, water-based coatings. Water-based 2K polyurethanes for furniture and cabinets. Man, are the best. I mean, they're going to make you money. They dry fast, sand, easy. They're more scratch resistant, scuff resistant, chemical resistant, water resistant. Um, if you're familiar with using lacquers, you know, it's an easy transition, but they're far superior to lacquers. They're far superior to oils. And over in Europe, oil based coatings are still used even on the outside. And there's still a lot of believers in oil based coatings, but they yellow, you know, over time. Um, they get brittle over time. some of the oil modified products don't, but I've just gotten away from them because they're just more difficult to use um harder um to get a hold of and stuff.
