  1. 12:25–12:43 Finalize with Protective Topcoat From Stair Riser Painting, Step 6: Apply Protective Topcoat (Optional)

    Once the stenciling and detailing are complete and fully dry, the final and most crucial step is to apply a durable clear topcoat. While flat paints are ideal for stenciling, they are not the most durable on their own for high-traffic areas like floors. The durability comes from the protective clear coat applied over the entire stenciled surface. The presenter specifically mentions using a water-based polyurethane like Varathane Ultimate Polyurethane. For areas like bathrooms or kitchens, applying two to three coats of this sealant is recommended to provide maximum protection against wear and tear. Apply the topcoat using a dense foam roller or a pad for a smooth, even finish.
