aliluke Posted October 6 Share #1 Posted October 6 Hello Miniwax Wipe on water based Poly is a favourite here on MSW. You can not get it in New Zealand for reasons I don't understand. You can get oil based Miniwax products here but not water based - I can't figure that out. Is there anyone who is willing to assist me by selling and shipping to me - at my cost of course - this product? Thanks.

Keith Black Posted October 6 Share #2 Posted October 6 Alistair, I've used both polycrylic clear satin and flat and don't really care for the product because I don't think it protects as well as polyurethane. I buy both from Amazon. See links below, in the last link Amazon states they'll ship to New Zealand if the order is over $49.00 USD. A gallon of either is $69.98 USD. If for some reason using Amazon doesn't work for whatever reason, PM me.

aliluke Posted October 7 Author Share #4 Posted October 7 That makes my search skills look pretty bad...😶 Found some at my local hardware store. Brush on and not wipe on but I'll give it try. Thanks!
