Kent,
I too tried the tee shirt rag and I did not like the results, I went back to the brush method.

: Hi Spidey,
: Well I tried putting a complete coat of varnish on the hull of the flame boat
: last night with a rag and was not happy with the results. I started out
: with a T shirt. The rag was not completely soaked through. When I applied
: it, it left a bunch of places that appeared rather dry and the sanding
: still showed through. I used a lot more varnish than I normally use with a
: brush as well. I finally gave up and went back to a brush and was much
: happier with the final outcome. Tonight I would like to re-varnish the
: deck on my 18 to get rid of a run I got last spring. I was hoping to use a
: rag to avoid runs but am now unsure I want to use one. Should I use some
: other type of rag? or do I need to completely soak the rag? I need some
: help before I resort to the brush.
