[C320-list] Interior Varnish

Here are two references from my personal archives that might be helpful....

The Target coating that was used on our new boats is no longer available.
The replacement is Oxford HYbriVar WB-Alkyd Varnish

Here are some notes from David Nolte last year....

They are at www.targetcoatings.com

As you'll see, there is an area for technical info, a shopping area,
and a forum and a blog, hosted by their guru, Jeff Weiss. I actually
just spoke with him yesterday, I'm tackling in the project as well.

Here's what I bought to do my sole and sidewalls:

Oxford HYbriVar WB-Alkyd Varnish: Satin 1 Gallon

It's water based. It's on its way to me, I hope to test it in the
next week or two. They also have semi-gloss & high gloss.

His instructions were to lightly sand, no higher than 220 grit (my
sole is pretty beat up - previous owner!), wipe down with a damp
cloth (water, no chemicals like a tack cloth), and apply. You can
brush or spray. I'll brush.
