Thanks,
Does that apply to Fiberglass epoxy over the wood as well? I don't
think I will need to reapply often as it will be covered most of the
time but I do want it to be tough. Epifanes website says that the
Gloss wood finish is for bare woods that are oily like teak. Is this
going to be different when it comes to fiberglass epoxy?Their site
doesn't seem to discuss fiberglass applications much.

Thanks again,
Bill

I've used Epifanes gloss varnish (long oil) over fiberglass with good
success, so I'm assuming the GWF will work well over glass as well. You
might want to put a coat of varnish on the sanded glass first. It will
raise any glass fibers you may have uncovered with sanding. Those can be
sanded off before applying GWF, but I'm confident GWF is fine on fiberglass.
As an aside, be sure to wipe down any fresh glass with acetone prior to
sanding. That removes the blush and insures that overcoats will adhere.

A good source of information about glass and what to put over it can be
found in the publications from the West System people. Many of their
publications are free.
