## Overview

TotalBoat Gleam Marine Spar Varnish is a premium polyurethane finish formulated with tung oil, phenolic resins, and UV blockers to deliver a durable, flexible, and transparent amber finish. Designed for both interior and exterior wood surfaces including boats and outdoor furniture, it resists cracking, peeling, and fading caused by weather and UV exposure. The fast-drying, self-leveling formula allows for easy application by brush, roller, or spray, with a quick 1-hour recoat time enabling up to 3 coats per day. Available in satin and gloss finishes, Gleam offers professional-grade protection and aesthetic appeal trusted by boaters and woodworkers alike.

## Description

TotalBoat Gleam is a classic style marine spar varnish that not only withstands the rigors of life at sea, it also makes the ideal wood varnish and wood sealer for all of your outdoor wood furniture, bar tops, tiki bars, picnic tables, patio tables, Adirondack chairs, antique wooden truck beds and more. This high-quality tung oil and phenolic resin formula contains UV inhibitors that provide lasting beauty, and a durable finish that expands and contracts with seasonal temperature changes to prevent chipping, cracking, and peeling. Use Gleam on interior and exterior wood for a tough, waterproof, marine polyurethane finish that won't fade. It's improved formula flows better, 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: Easy to use, looks great! - I used this on a couple live edge pine slabs for my dock bar. The stuff looks great & dried quickly for spar varnish. I brushed on 3 coats. It looked great, but a few hours later I notice one area w/brush marks & a couple that had almost a puddle, like it was too much in those areas. It seemed nice & dry so I took some sand paper & sanded those areas. All of those sanded areas sanded well. The product “talc-ed” up while sanding & didn’t load up the sandpaper with sticky fresh paint sometimes does. When paint is dry it dusts/talcs, if it’s not dry enough it’s gummy. This sanded well within 6 hours @ 90 degrees. Anyways, I wanted to apply another coat that evening so I brushed it on. An hour later I checked on it & was pissed to find everywhere I sanded it, the last coat wrinkled. Apparently, sanding the outer surface opened up the inner layer, which wasn’t quite as dry. The application of more varnish confused the inner that wasn’t as cured/dried & attacked it, wrinkling it. So I let it set for 24 hours, & then really sanded all the wrinkled areas with a DA sander w/150G, then 320G on the entire surface. Then I gave up on the brushing method & since I’ve got some nice spray guns from my auto body biz, I sprayed. Apllied more coats of Gleam, waiting a couple hours in between @ 95 degrees. Couldn’t be happier with the results. I don’t know why I tried brushing it. You’ve got so much more control with the gun. You do have to reduce it about 10-20% with xylene, which in California is thought to find, however Klean Strip makes a replacement product called Painters Solvent. It worked great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Varnish I’ve ever tried!
*by A***B on January 8, 2025*

I’m so impressed with Gleam! I used it to finish our front door and I wanted a product that’s easy to apply, quick to dry, and looks great. I followed the instructions that in order to get a good satin finish, you start with gloss and add satin at the end. I applied the first coat thinned with the TB thinner and did a flood coat with gloss. I applied the finish with a foam roller and tipped it off with a foam brush. The door got 6 coats of gloss (1.5 cans) which made it so reflective I could see my face in it! I then scuff sanded, cleaned, and applied 2 coats of satin which gave me a great sheen. I was impressed with how smooth it went on. It flattens out nicely, and was easy to apply.
