TotalBoat Gleam Marine Spar Varnish – Gloss & Satin Polyurethane Finish (Pint)

Overview

TotalBoat Gleam is a classic marine spar varnish designed to protect and beautify wood in demanding environments. Its premium tung oil and phenolic resin blend, enhanced with UV blockers, delivers a transparent amber glow that enhances natural grain on boats, outdoor furniture, bar tops, and more. The formulation is engineered to stay flexible as wood expands and contracts with changing temperatures and humidity, helping to reduce chipping, cracking, and peeling over time. Whether you choose gloss or satin, Gleam offers a durable, waterproof polyurethane-like finish that resists fading with exterior exposure.

Key benefits

• UV inhibitors help maintain color and protect exterior wood surfaces from weathering.
• Flexible, self-leveling finish that stays intact as wood moves with seasons.
• Easy application by brush, roller, or spray with minimal brush marks and fast flow-out.
• Transparent amber hue enhances wood tone while providing a durable seal.
• Gloss or satin options allow you to tailor appearance to furniture, decks, or boats.
• Recoat times are quick, supporting efficient projects with multiple coats in a day.

How to use

• Application can be done by brush, roll, or spray. For gloss, apply 4–6 coats; for satin, build with gloss first and finish with satin as the final coats.
