Cetol is not just orange. It has other distinctive properties.


"Cetol... it's not just for breakfast any more!"

Frankly I have lost faith in various marine brands of
miracle glop intended to make boating less time consuming
and more skill-free

That's true, it does have other distictive properties:

1. It is *very* slippery when wet.

2. If not meticulously kept up, it looks like faded barn paint.

3. If it *is* meticulously kept up, it looks orange.

How's that for keen observation ?


If the wood on your boat has pretty grain and is well fit,
in other words, an aesthetic plus; why would you slather
some kind of miracle glop that hides the grain all over it?
Just to save some time (which it doesn't in the long run)
and to avoid learning the skill of varnishing?

OTOH if the wood on your boat is not an aesthetic plus, then
why bother with the time & effort of varnishing? For that
matter, why bother with miracle glop that is 90% of the time
& effort of varnishing? Just ****in' paint it and be done.
