"polyurethane can definitely be the diva of sealants."
Haha, couldn't have said it better myself. When I first moved into my place, I thought polyurethane was the magic fix-all—until I spent an entire weekend sanding and reapplying, only to find bubbles popping up like stubborn weeds. Honestly, hybrids sound great on paper, but after my polyurethane fiasco, I'm skeptical of anything that promises "easy application." Still, if it means fewer weekends spent cursing at window frames, maybe it's worth a shot...

Totally get where you're coming from—I've had my share of "easy" products turn into weekend-long headaches. With poly, I've found that temperature and humidity can make or break the finish. Did you try using a foam brush or stick with bristles? For me, switching to a foam applicator helped cut down on bubbles, though it's still not foolproof. Curious if anyone's tried those water-based sealants on old wood frames—worth the switch, or just another marketing gimmick?
