Joel Regular paint thinner?
Steve Yes – I have read that. A friend (formerly C&C25-1 and now C&C99) used varnish over epoxy on the 25 with great results. Seals the teak better and hopefully holds up better/longer than varnish. Teak & Holly now $609 CAD for 4x8 sheet so wantto take good care of it Mike From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Joel Aronson via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2016 2:36 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Joel Aronson Subject: Re: Stus-List cabin sole question/update Mike, I did 3 coats of epoxy. Used thinner between coats. I'd use thinner between coats of varnish too. I don't know what Ephiphanes recommends for the number of coats. I used Cetol natural x 3. I imagine that's the minimum you would apply.

I have two coats of West 105/207 on the finished side of the teak and holly as well as underneath and on edges. Following epoxy I am planning a number of coats of Epifanes varnish on the finished side only. A couple of questions. 1. After sanding epoxy and prior to initial coat of varnish what should be used to wipe down the surface? Acetone? 2. After sanding each coat of varnish what is used to wipe down the varnish prior to applying next coat? Some sort of paint thinner or something else? I have Interlux 202 Solvent wash, paint thinner, Interlux special thinner 216 and acetone on hand as well as a Canadian Tire and a Chandlery on my drive home 3. How many coats of epoxy prior to first coat of varnish? (finish surface) 4. How many coats of varnish over the epoxy? (finish surface) Thanks Mike Persistence 1987 Frers 22 #16 Halifax, NS http://users.eastlink.ca/~mhoyt _______________________________________________ Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com<mailto:CnC-List@cnc-list.com> To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go to the bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com -- Joel 301 541 8551
