This high-quality tung oil and phenolic resin formula features added UV inhibitors that provide lasting beauty, and a durable finish that expands and contracts with seasonal temperature changes to prevent chipping, ing, and peeling. Use Gleam on interior and exterior wood for a tough, waterproof finish that won't fade. Gleam 2.0 has an improved formula that flows easier, won’t leave brush marks, and has better overcoating & cure times, making it easy to get great results. Each coat provides medium build with excellent flow-out. You'll love how it flows off the brush and self-levels, leaving a smooth durable surface. Gleam gives all wood surfaces a radiant, transparent, warm amber hue in gloss or satin (matte) finish. For a high gloss varnish finish, apply 4-6 coats of Gleam Gloss. For a sleek satin finish, build with coats of the Gleam gloss varnish, and apply Gleam Satin for the final 1-2 coats. Whichever formula you choose, you’ll appreciate that Gleam’s improved formula allows you to scuff and apply additional coats quicker than ever because you can recoat in 1 hr. at 72 degrees F, and apply up to 3 coats in 1 day.

Review: Perfect for outdoor wood bar! - We bought this for a wood counter top bar on our lake pier. This stuff is great! We sanded and cleaned the top. We then applied the gleam varnish with a little sponge roller and let it dry. We sanded again then applied another coat and repeated one more time. This stuff is amazing. The bar is so shiny and slick. It protects it from the sun and rain. It is so easy to clean and wipe off any dirt or spilled substance. If you are looking to protect wood outside whether it is tables, bars or chairs, you will love this. There are some videos on youtube that will show you exactly how to apply it if you search. We are very happy with it. Review: The nicest varnish I've every worked with. - I wanted a marine varnish to protect 2 tables & 4 benches that were being left out in the sun and rain from late May to early October, restaurant patio season. With covid and the onset of outdoor patio's the rain had worn the finish off both these tables. I sanded down to remove the water damage and purchased a gal of gloss and a gal of satin from TotalBoat Gleam Marine Varnish. I did the first 5 coats of gloss and the last 3 coats of satin to bring down the shine. Before I topped it with satin, the gloss finish looked like it was a thick clear epoxy finish. I lightly sanded with a 400 grit every 2nd coat, the finish on these tables and benches is just amazing. I love this quality product better than any varnish I have used to date. And I only used about 1/2 the gal of gloss and 1/4 of the gal of satin. The photo's are of tables and benches finished with the satin varnish. ## Features - CLASSIC MARINE VARNISH contains premium tung oil, phenolic resins and UV blockers for a beautiful, warm, transparent amber finish on all types of interior and exterior wood - DURABLE SPAR VARNISH is the ideal outdoor wood sealer and finish for waterproof UV resistance on brightwork on boats, strip canoes, kayaks and outdoor wooden bar tops, garage doors, furniture and more - EASY TO USE, SELF-LEVELING, DRIES FAST: Recoat in 1 hr. @ 72°F; apply up to 3 coats in 1 day; cured varnish remains flexible, expands and contracts with the wood during seasonal humidity and temperature changes - CHOOSE GLOSS OR SATIN FINISH: For a high gloss varnish finish apply 4-6 coats of Gleam Gloss; for a sleek satin finish, build with coats of Gleam gloss varnish and use Gleam Satin for the final coats - AVAILABLE IN GLOSS OR SATIN (low-sheen), in Pint, Quart and Gallon sizes.

You just want to be sure to wash the amine blush off of the cured epoxy before applying the varnish, if not the varnish will not adhere properly. To remove the blush, wash the surface of the cured epoxy with soap, water and a scotch-brite pad. Thank you. **Q: Is it clear or is it amber colored? Looking to coat an outdoor table with a colored design on it. I do not want it to alter the colors.** A: It is amber. Most outdoor finishes will have an amber tint to them. **Q: is this better then a epoxy resin for live edge bar?** A: It depends on what you're using it for? If it's to protect would from ultraviolet then the only epoxy resin I know that does that is West System which is not a finish coat. You would still have to use a varnish over top of that. I have used total boat Gleam on my boat about a year ago and had excellent results with it. Being able to re coat every 2 to 3 hours as a big deal to me and with enough Coats lasts longer than most varnishes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for outdoor wood bar! *by B***L on 1 May 2026* We bought this for a wood counter top bar on our lake pier.
