Putting anything on top of Cetol sort of defeats its main advantage.
Cetol breathes, which is beneficial to the wood, and maintenance is easy
because a quick scrub with plain water and a 3M kitchen scrubby is all
the prep work usually required to add a fresh coat or two when needed.
The slight softness is a PLUS. If you top coat it, you lose all of
that.and may as well just do labor intensive varnish without the Cetol.

Our boatyard manager (graduate of Great Lakes School of Wooden
Boatbuilding) told me Cetol should be coated with at least 2 coats of
Captain's Varnish (or similar?). Says Cetol finish by itself is too
soft for his liking. Has worked great for me...
