snip How many coats should I put on so the varnish doesn't flake off? It's like fairing out a boat. When your arms feel like they are going to drop off, you're done. Seriously, I'd put 3-4 coats of epoxy on first, totally encapsulating the wood, followed by 4-6 coats of varnish. The varnish protects the epoxy, the epoxy protects the wood. Lew |
