TotalBoat Halcyon Water-Based Marine Varnish | Fast-Drying Polyurethane Wood Finish for Boats & Outdoor Wood | Clear Gloss, Quart

TotalBoat Halcyon Water-Based Marine Varnish is a one-part polyurethane finish designed to protect and enhance wood on boats, outdoor furniture, doors, and trim. This ultra-clean formula dries quickly, delivers strong abrasion resistance, and maintains clarity, so your wood looks natural with a subtle, amber-tinged depth or a pure, ultra-clear sheen. The finish keeps woods from looking milky or hazy as it ages, and the more coats you apply, the richer and warmer the final look becomes. Halcyon Clear cures to a gloss or satin tone without discoloring light woods or muddying dark woods, preserving grain and depth while adding durable protection.

Why shoppers choose Halcyon

• Fast-drying, with the option to recoat in as little as 1 hour at 72°F, allowing up to 5 coats in a single day.

• Low-VOC, water-based formula that minimizes odor and makes cleanup simple, while delivering strong sun, weather, and abrasion resistance.
• Finish options to match your project: Amber Gloss for traditional warmth, or Clear Gloss/Semi-Gloss/Satin for enhanced grain or a softer glow. For Satin and Semi-Gloss looks, start with Gloss and topcoat accordingly.
• Packaging benefits include a resealable Pour Pak bag that reduces drips and waste, helping you finish projects with less mess.

Usage guidelines

• Typical coverage is about 40-50 sq ft per pint and 80-100 sq ft per quart, depending on surface porosity and application method.
