Putting anything on top of Cetol sort of defeats its main advantage. Cetol breathes, which is beneficial to the wood, and maintenance is easy because a quick scrub with plain water and a 3M kitchen scrubby is all the prep work usually required to add a fresh coat or two when needed. The slight

Our boatyard manager (graduate of Great Lakes School of Wooden Boatbuilding) told me Cetol should be coated with at least 2 coats of Captain's Varnish (or similar?). Says Cetol finish by itself is too soft for his liking. Has worked great for me... *Chuck Saur* (517)-490-5926

One popular technique in the tropics is to fill and seal the grain using epoxy and then painting the wood with Sears Weatherbeater house paint or similar, of a "woody color". This holds up for a very long time under the unrelenting tropical sun, and since the paint will not have touched the

I like Cetol, but I don't use it on my exterior teak. I'm a Semco believer. When I got Pegathy the exterior varnish was useless. Had to be stripped off. It was a Royal Paine Diaz, as Click and Clack would say. I put on two coats of Semco Honeytone. Had to put on a third later that year. Next

Randy, I’ll throw in with Awlwood MA. It’s a bit dear price-wise but I’ve found that it floats out well and that fewer coats are needed to achieve the same depth of gloss that regular varnish requires, ergo less work. Keep in mind that it is a two-oars (first coat of Primer Clear then
