Shortly before okoumefest, did I see a picture of someone spraying varnish on a kayak on this website in preparation for that event? Seems like a cheap way for ME to get 6-8 thin coats on a kayak without the usual drips and sags that I get with my roll and tip off technique.
I browsed the paint dept at Home Depot yesterday and spoke to the clerk who said the 40 dollar sprayer would do a good varnish job on a kayak
I also saw several waterbased stains. Maybe we can get the color, if not the swirling grain, of sapele without the price of sapele.
