Use interior or exterior clear finish for window trim?
Hi,
Now that our new windows are installed, we plan to use a clear finish for the interior pine, such as a satin water-based Urethane. Is it best to use an exterior grade finish, or is an interior grade fine? I think some rain will eventually wet the surfaces, since we'll probably forget to close a window, or will be hit by a surprise rain storm. To prevent staining the wood, the contractor said to first apply one coat of finish before filling nail holes with a pine filler. Any other advice is welcome, too. Thanks. Dugie |
