Review: The best finish to use on everything ! - I use this on all my refinished antiques and it is an excellent finish when used properly with multiple thin layers applied between light sanding . The finish has depth and retains the character of my antique cedar chests , chairs , tables , wicker and 1800’s furniture while also leaving me a lot more free time. The finish can be singed off with a damp sponge , no worries about water rings, scratches are easily swiped out , it adds a bit of warmth over time , does not peel off and I don’t have to deal with waxing , varnish lifting , or any kind of buildup on my furniture now . I have used both semi gloss and high gloss on many 1800’s and early 1900’s antiques . Done in thin fine coats you cannot tell the difference between varnish and spar urethane . This way I can damp sponge my table tops and legs and still enjoy my antiques that stay clean and easily maintained . I have not had problems with bubbling or using this product ever . If anything it brings out a richness and the patina of old wood that cannot be replicated . And I still use furniture polish a few times a year on all my furniture even over the spar varnish finish . I have also rattan seating on ice cream chairs , rattan baskets that I can then wash with a spray in the sink or shower and dry quickly , kitchen tables so I can sponge those off with water , a stickley rocker , 1700’s cedar blanket chests , 1930’s end tables solid cherry , even my papasian chair when new got a few coats or this spar varnish and 25 years later it looks brand new and is super easily cleaned and dusted . For use on things that will be outside do expect some maintenance and up keep as nothing lasts forever outside . But even my wooden bar spacer on my double hammock has lasted for 30 years just because every couple of years I’ve scrap any peeling off and apply a quick coat of this spar varnish with a cheap sponge brush . The spacer bar looks brand new still . I love my old furniture and I love my new furniture . I like to able to use them and keep them clean and protected for generations to come . This spar varnish is amazing for that . It makes antiques usable and prolongs their life . It makes new furniture last longer and super easy to keep clean . Plus the spar varnish can be lightly sanded if needed and reapplied for a perfect finish on heavily used table tops such as kitchen tables . It is durable and contains a nice uv protection . And it restores furniture to its original shine . I’d be lost without this product and spending way to much time waxing and dusting and worrying about water marks and dents . This is quite durable and with some practice is very easy to apply .
