No arguement over "words" from me. I normally use Epifanes High Gloss which gives me a beautiful finish with just 3 coats and it is very easy to apply. The reason I even bothered to try the Varathane water-borne finish is because I wanted to obtain the same high gloss and easy application but without the amber tint so "traditional" to spar varnishes. I will just stick to the Epifanes.
