I’ll try this thinner varnish process, are thinners all the same for an oil spar
varnish?
In time I would like to put a more appropriate base on it.

Thin your oil based varnish of choice and apply it the same as the watco, lots
of thin coats.use fine sandpaper between coats. Unless gloss varnish, keep it
well mixed in the can at all stages. I have come to prefer quick drying varnish
for this process as I'm an impatient finisher....
