How long does a can of Poly usually last before it no good to use? I have a stand I just completed and stained and was about to poly it when I noticed the only can I have is really old. Thanks

No help as I don't know the shelf life of poly but, when in doubt . . .. Is it really worth the risk after all the time and care you put into that stand?

Ok so this can in my guess is about 8-10 years old due to the HQ logo on can. I would have to make a guess here and say NO. Thanks

This is almost a full quart, what is the proper way of disposing of it?
Contributor
The two ways I know to dispose of it is (1) take it to the hazardous waste facility, or (2) pour it on some old newspapers and let it dry in the sun. Then throw the newspapers and the can away in the regular trash. This might be tough with a whole quart.

Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.
Sawdust is very absorbent.
