Choosing a finish for exterior wood
We're starting to get the boat ready for another season of sailing, and
I would appreciate some advice as to pros/cons of various products for refinishing exterior wood - Cetol, varnish with UV protection, and polyurethane varnish with UV protection. Which is most suitable for wood trim in the cockpit and on deck, teak cockpit table, rungs on swim ladder (will be submerged in salt water when the ladder is down), plywood dinghy flooring (will also be somewhat submerged during use and also rainstorms), etc. The manufacturers' recommendations seem to be more advertising than practical advice. Since all of these finishes will be applied with a brush, the main concern seems to be durability for the different applications. -Nancy |
