HI Guys ,

There is a small office where there are wood paneling on the walls installed and there was no way to spray the panels in a booth as the client wanted no seams on the panels .My question is it possible to spray polyurthene in a space like a office (wearing the right gear off course) and get a good finish .Or do you recommed some other top coat that would be easier to apply and give a excellent finish , durablity etc

Your advise appreciated

Assuming there's nothing else important in the office (like carpet or furniture) and there's good ventilation to outside, I don't see why you couldn't spray the poly. Ideally, you could use a HVLP spray which would have little overspray compared with conventional spraying. But if there's anything else in the office, or if the only ventilation is aircon, then I wouldn't use a conventional spray.

There are wiping varnishes or penetrating oil finishes that you could use. They don't have the durability of poly, but perhaps that's OK if it's on the walls...?
