Address Marker Finishing Question

Spar varnish? Not spar urethane.

Nice work.

An oil, like Penofin, regularly re-applied?

A high quality marine spar varnish from a boat shop. Not the stuff Minwax calls spar varnish.

Good job.

Thanks for the advice! Frank, I actually have a can of Australian timber oil in my shop that I have never opened. Do you know what it would do to the colors of walnut and paduak? I beleive the finish is called “Natural” but I was wondering if it was an amber color and how that would look with the woods I used. Normally I would try it on some scrap, but I litterally used all my scrap to make this project…

Thanks again for the help.
