The present invention provides an aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) comprising an amorphous polyester having a glass transition temperature (Tg) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry of less than −30° C.; wherein the aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) has a glass transition temperature (Tg) as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of 0° C. to 20° C. and a hard block content of greater than 50%. Coatings, adhesives and sealants made from the inventive aqueous polyurethane dispersion (PUD) pass detergent resistance testing according to the American Architectural Manufacturers Association's standard, AAMA 615-13, have a pencil hardness according to ASTM D3363 of at least 3H, and are particularly suited for use on low surface energy substrates such as vinyl surfaces including floors, windows, doors, window frames, door frames, window shutters, railing, gates, pillars, arbors, pergolas, trellises, gazebos, posts, fencing, pipes and fittings, wire and cable insulation, automobile components, credit cards, and siding.
