Epiphanes is expensive but I don't have a single bad thing to say say about it...which is rare for me to say. **Q: Can I use epifanes over linseed oil** A: Linseed oil is the base for most oil based stains. It needs to be mostly to completely dry and not puddled. If possible, wipe over the linseed area with a good paint thinner to eliminate the puddles, and let it dry. I use Naphtha for my pre-wipe to help eliminate waxes and other surface contaminants. Epifanes should go over the linseed oil nicely if you follow the application directions. I have used it over many colored stains with the linseed oil base. **Q: how much do I need to do 2 coats on 50 sq.ft.** A: It depends on a couple of things. If you thin the varnish (recommended) and the type of wood. Bare dry porous wood like an oak would take several coats of thinned just to penetrate. My best guess woul be one can thinned 50 / 50 to seal, being about 3 / 4 coats sanded between coats. It will take the most of another can full strength, 3/4 coats sanded between to get the classic result I have always experienced with this product. BTW, after a summer in the weather, my teak bench and chairs look like they are covered with a coat of thick ice. INCREDIBLE stuff!!! **Q: Could I use a fine nap paint roller to cover a 10 by 20 foot floor with this product? The floor will be exposed to some sun and rain.** A: I have rolled the product many times, following behind with a brush tipped with the brushing liquid to smooth. Epifanes produces different types with varying amounts of UV protection. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***K on August 20, 2015* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***N on November 21, 2015* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***N on August 9, 2015* ## Frequently Bought Together - Epifanes Clear Varnish - Epifanes Thinner for P & V Brush - Epifanes Wood Finish Matte (500 ml) Package may Vary --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2162960-clear-varnish](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2162960-clear-varnish) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-10*
