DuraSeal Quick Coat: Deep Color and Reliable Performance

DuraSeal Quick Coat is a top choice among flooring professionals for its ability to deliver rich, even color while enhancing the natural grain of hardwood. This penetrating stain goes beyond surface-level coverage, it absorbs into the wood to reveal depth and character, while also acting as a sealer that supports lasting protection under your finish.


Designed for efficiency, DuraSeal Quick Coat dries in just two hours, helping keep projects on time without compromising quality. It’s compatible with multiple application methods, whether you’re using a rag for precision, a pad for mid-sized areas, or a buffer for larger commercial spaces. Available in 36 pre-mixed shades and customizable blends, it gives you the flexibility to meet any style or color requirement with confidence.
