[QUOTE="Wayne Roberts, post: 502328, member: 33834"] You could thin it with mineral spirits a little or you could warm the wood by placing it in the sun which will open up the pours some. I put 3 coats of Marine Spar varnish (satin) with a light steel wooling between coats and it has lasted a long time. Now if you use plywood I would say then the fiberglass application is probably a good idea. I live in Florida also so i know all about Hurricane damaged boats..........we got plenty of em down here too on the southwest coast. [/QUOTE]
