    Default waterbased varnish help

    anyone have any experence with waterbased varnish/poly, whatever...i tryed the cabbots but it just doesn't leave a crystal clear finish as say feast watson satinproof, but i need a quick dryer and i don't have spray equip. not that i would have the room or air flow for spraying anyway , so it's got to be quick drying and brush or wipe on..

    any sugestions... anyone

    Cabots Crystal Clear does not dry cloudy if you follow the instructions.

    Growing old is much better than the alternative!

    I've used Crystalac, which I got from Gregorys, on a few items. It dries fast, clear, and without brush strokes. And a little seems to go a long way.

    Kind regards
