: Thanks. So far so good. It looks like auto clearcoat
: is viable. I'll have to see if it has UV inhibitors.

: Anyone know of a good varnish that stays clear?

Mark, one varnish that reportedly goes on with no real yellow color and doesn't darken much with age is a one-part urethane by Interlux. It used to be called Clipper Clear. I think it has since been renamed Goldspar. I don't have personal experience with it, but I think some other folks on the forum have given it a thumb's up.
