1960's seacraft restoration - varnish
Hello All,
I have started to bring a 1967 seacraft back to life. I have done all the hard stuff and only have a couple of areas to finish off.
One of these is applying the varnish to the deck. I have not been able to get a consistant, even surface. I was hoping the the varnish would flow into the deep points and "settle" or even itself out but this has not been the case. I have appplied 7 coats and sanded between each. What to I do from here to try to even out the surface and get that mirror finish.
Also the boat has a Holden 179 in it. It has extractors fitted and i have been told that these will get red hot, and could become dangerous. What do people on here think? Should i do away with the extractors and fit a one peiece marine exhaust manifold?
