:Thanks Dan! I think I will rethink the spraying and just roll/brush the LPU. can you roll /tip the varnish as well? or brush only

I just used Interlux's Perfection Varnish on a canoe. Applied it with only a
: badger brush. In fact you have to apply it with a brush because it's
: pre-thinned. It was nice to apply. It does takes some practice. You know
: you're putting it on too thick when it starts to make sags.

: The paint rolls/tips beautifully. In fact I just rolled a coat of black on a
: kayak this AM before work. The two-component LPU's are especially nasty if
: you try to spray them. Chuck full of isocyanates. Fine for
: rolling/brushing though.
