: Ok, should restate this anyway, the other reason for more than 4 coats is you
: don't gain enough UV resistance that way, the film thickness is just too
: thin. So takes multiple coats, though you lose a fair portion of that with
: sanding.

: Of course I'm used to varnishing boats that sit for a season in the sun
: rather than a few hours, so for them the UV resistance is of more
: importance. Last boat I did had 14 coats and used as I remember around 24
: quarts of varnish.

For god's sake, please tell me that was a yacht that you were working on. Or maybe you're still in the April fools mode. With the what I just popped for a qt. of Pettit Flagship, I'll need a second mortgage just to finish my boats!
