On the outside wood, I'm using Natural Teak Cetol. -- Richard Lamb Sounds good. I did my interior trim in Minwax spar urethane satin and really like the finish. Yeah - I do to. The galley cabinet finished up last night. Beautiful! Looks like it will go back in this weekend and we can start showing her off! Richard -- Richard Lamb |

Looks good until it starts to fade, then it looks like orange barn paint. I must be using a different version although it says "Cytol" on the can. Mine just looks grungier and grungier until I scrub it down and put on a couple of more coats. But it never looks "orange", it looks more like decorating varnish. Are the different flavors? Yeah. Four in the marine flavors. http://www.yachtpaint.com/USA/sikkens/default.asp Us poor benighted 3rd world people don't get all those choices. From memory the cans I have are "Light" and all I have seen here. On the other hand, there are some advantages. Before I listed the 40 ft. sloop I just sold I had the entire interior refurbished. One piece of the 1/8" panel that lines the S.B. the side of the cabin top replaced and everything sanded and revarnished. I don't know how many coats but a "smooth" finish. Cost me $545 :-) Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |
