Guys, I know a lot of SOF builders use Zar varnish for a skin coating. Cheap, easy to find, works well.
Would you recommend it for a S&G varnish?

Seems to be the only exterior varnish on the site, has UV inhibitors, and dries in 2 hours. Sounds good to me!
I can get Epiphanes, Pettit Captains Varnish, or Interlux Schooner, but I'm wondering if the added expense it worth it? Also, I read either here or QUSA forum that Epiphanes takes a week to cure (?!!!?) I like the idea of a 2 hour cure, I can tell you...
Thanks,
Brian
