: You're right when you say that you get what you pay for, but...
: If you use varnish A which costs twice as much as varnish B, you will not get
: twice the use out of it. But remember that a lot of this is the work it
: takes to apply the varnish, which is why I decidied to try poly, the
: really nice kind. They use it on Rive boats (they look like the old chris
: crafts)and they have 15,000 dollar paint jobs, with only 1,000 dollars of
: paint.
