Well-Known Member. As long as it’s completely dry, you can use a spar urethane over water based stains. Spar will seal and adhere to the fibers of the wood and into the pores. Since water base or oil based stains do not seal the wood completely, the spar will be fine. Simply so, what is spar urethane vs polyurethane? The key advantages of Spar Urethane are the flexibility and UV resistance (similar to Varnish) which makes it a better choice compared to polyurethane when it comes to exterior uses. Polyurethane may be a better choice for indoor application, thanks to its hard-protective coat.How long will Polyurethane last outside?Gloss oil-based varnish, polyurethane and Danish oil can last 10 or 20 years, though satin finishes and stains may fail sooner as pigments and flattening agents disable the driers. Water-based coatings and paints can also be viable longer than three years. Shellac, though, can go bad in under a year.
