Stus-List Re: Varnish
Hi all, I just bought Halcyon from Jamestown dist. It is also water based and is supposed to have less smell. I am going to try it to refresh the interior of our 40-2. I wonder if it is actually the same product as Gen. Fin. just rebranded.

It does not have the same yellowing tendency as varnish and it looks really great! You can hot coat it after the primer is cured. It is very expensive, however.

Arlet likes Minwax, polyurethane, satin. Or glass. I used that inside . . Sea Fox, and it held up great for as long as I had it. I imagine it is still holding up great. Polyurethane is just fine inside, & it wears like iron.

15 years ago I revarnished the interior with an exterior satin poly urethane. I did the trim with gloss. It has held up remarkably well. A key a good job is prep. Sand and wipe down well.

Try Pettit Sea Gold. Requires a sealer but the product itself is water based and dries in about 40 minutes. You could get the job done in one day.
