Hi Michael,

I saw your response related to McCloskey spar varnish. I recently purchased some McCloskey spar varnish. I got 2 gallons cheap because the store carrying it was going out of business. What has your experience been with this product? If I put 4 - 6 coats of this varnish on a kayak, will it provide enough protection for my boat. The boat will reside inside the garage when not in use.

Or, should I reconsider and get the Captains or Flagship varnish?

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks,

Rich
