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.

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
