Its exceptional flow and leveling characteristics, combined with superior clarity, produce a smooth, clear surface that brings out the natural beauty of fine wood while providing long-lasting protection. Special UV inhibitors help ensure long life and protection even in harsh marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1 quart container covers approximately 110 square feet and is recommended for both interior and exterior wood surfaces. For best results, apply Captain's Varnish 1015 in thin coats of no more than 3 wet mils each, since applying several thin coats produces better results than a few thick ones. Allow each coat to dry overnight before sanding or recoating. High humidity or excess moisture in the air can extend drying time. If drips occur, sand them out with 220 grit sandpaper (slightly overlapping the surrounding finish) and apply a fresh coat across the entire surface to blend the appearance; if dust settles into a wet coat, let it dry fully, sand back just enough to remove the contamination, and recoat the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pettit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8710108\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line:\u003c\/strong\u003e Captain's Varnish 1015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyurethane (PU)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Form:\u003c\/strong\u003e Liquid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Quart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110 square feet per quart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interior, Exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Wet Film Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 wet mils per coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecoat Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry overnight before sanding or recoating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 725469011977\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many wet mils thick should each coat of Captain's Varnish 1015 be applied?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each coat of Captain's Varnish 1015 should be applied at no more than 3 wet mils.
