New Finish for the Woodies

June 19, 2010

Ooooooh, shiny!

I wasn’t quite satisfied with the varnish (actually an epoxy) that I was using for the wood racks, so I looked around and got some better goo. The new stuff is three coats of marine spar varnish and it’s not only super rugged, but gorgeous too. If you have a good monitor you should be able to click on the photo for the full resolution image and really be able to see how well this stuff brings out the grain.
