207008 Marine Spar Varnish, Quart | Exterior Wood Protection, UV & Weather Resistance, Moisture Resistant Finish, Boats, Trim & Outdoor Wood, Quart

I used this RustOleum Marine Spar Varnish on a wooden patio table, and the results were great. The varnish goes on smoothly and gives a rich, glossy finish that really enhances the natural wood grain. It made the surface look clean and polished, almost like something out of a professional woodshop. It held up well against sun, rain, and humidity. After weeks of summer weather, the finish still looks fresh with no cracking or fading. This varnish definitely gives long lasting protection and works especially well on natural or stained wood. One thing to note — I tested it on a white-painted surface, and it added a slight amber tint. So I would not recommend using it over white or very light colors if you want the color to stay pure. It is better suited for darker or natural wood tones. Overall, this is a reliable and high quality varnish for outdoor furniture or any wood that needs extra protection from the weather. I’ll definitely use it again for future woodworking projects.

I bought this to protect an outdoor wood countertop and it has not disappointed! It goes on very nicely and after four coats it has created an impermeable shield against moisture. Water simply sits on top and I can use a squeegee to wipe it off. It also gave the wood a sleek "wet" look and a smooth feel. The can stretched much further than I expected - I still have some left for other projects too.

Very Expensive

Love this varnish! It provides a nice, thick coat for your wood pieces to help protect them from the elements. It is very high gloss. I used this on the outdoor table and benches. I applied two coats with a long curing time in between, but I could have gotten away with just one coat too. This varnish is thick and sticky. It takes a while to fully dry out.
