Varnish

I have been looking into various brands of varnish to use over the epoxy. Epifanes makes a great clear HIGH gloss for brightwork that builds up really good. Has anyone used this over epoxy ? There seems to be various mfgs. that recommend the epoxy cure for 12 to 28 days before varnishing, and that a "special" two part sealent be used over the epoxy before varnishing !etc... Sounds like a lot of hasle to me, what procedure/product is being used out there with good consistant results ?

Thanks for a Great/informative B.B. Nick !!!.........
