Dan,

If you know where to get polyurethane for $6/gallon, please let us
all in on your secret :^) About the cheapest that I've seen gallon quan-
tities in Home Depot, Lowes, ect. of even the cheap off-brand poly-
urethanes is around $20/gallon. Name brands are generally close to $30
a gallon.Quart quantities of Minwax urethane runs around $8 to $9 in
my area.
