Jamestown distributors has a varnish survey. Might be worth a look. On The Office I used Cetol Natural Teak and was generally happy with it. On Atlantis I started with Interlux Schooner Gold, but have switched to Epiphanes. I'm using the RapidClear because you can recoat every 5-6 hours without sanding. It takes a couple days to harden, but I'm liking it so far.
