subject: Executive Office Furniture – Polyurethane Vs. Varnish [print this page] Polyurethane Polyurethane with a matte to high gloss finish, is used most often in modern designs and mainstream styles of furniture. While this finish can give a plastic like appearance, if it is applied properly to well designed furniture it looks rich and clean. The high gloss finish gives a stream lined look to an executive desk or a modern sheen to a simple book shelf that could not otherwise be achieved with varnish. Besides the look of polyurethane, the finish is also very strong. It is considered the most effective finish to protect against moisture, heat, chips, and chemical abrasions.
