Greetings fellow dialists, Seeking your advice: I'm refurbishing a wall dial I made in 1994 for a sea front location. The dial is of marine plywood painted white with black lettering and a brass gnomon. Because of its position, after painting I gave it a couple coats of varnish to protect it from sea spray and sand. I used a clear varnish, not yacht varnish. But the varnish quickly turned yellow. The result was not unpleasant but it was not the white dial I had planned.
Now the dial needs attention. What varnish should I now use that would stay clear and be suitable for outside conditions? Suggestions, please. Thanks in advance. Frank 55N 1W -- Frank Evans
