Why did spar urethane turn yellow?
Oil based polyurethanes turn the floors yellow…and over time, they become more yellow…and sometimes even a bit orangish. It's the UV rays from the sun that turn them a darker yellow or amber and the more they are exposed over time, the yellower they get. This holds true for viirtually all species.
