Varnish questions

Hi folks!  Two questions.

First, I assume I should varnish the inside of the cockpit, at least as far as I can reach and/or the sun won't hit?

Second... I see in the Interlux data sheet that the shelf life of the varnish is two years.  I bought mine 6 years ago.  Should I buy it new before I start?  It's never been opened.

Thanks!

RE: Varnish questions

Hi Bruce, 

if its never been opened, i think you should be fine if, after opening it, it still appears in its appropriate/liquid state.

so if its liquid when you open it, stir/prep per the instructions and you can do a little test on a scrap piece of wood.  if it drys up properly per the instrucitons, you should be good to go.

if not, dispose of it per your local hazardous waste instructions.

   on your first question, yes, varnish what you can reach or where the sun may hit it.

Thanks for the reply!  As for question two, I got hold of Interlux.  They told me not to use it on anything important, so I ordered new varnish.  Man that stuff is expensive!
