Well, my interest in varnish has led me to a new discovery. It all happened because I started calling the manufacturers directly with my questions… I called Epifanes at least three times in one day. I learned the correct pronunciation of Epifanes (Epee-fawn-us), and that West Marine rebrands Epifanes products, which they sell at a lower price – proving that West Marine’s normal markup is just absolutely off the charts ridiculous. You can’t get Rapid Clear at West Marine, but you can get Wood Pro Plus – which is the same thing. If you’re not familiar with the product, it’s a quick drying semi gloss product that doesn’t require sanding between coats. Great for all my bare wood projects, where 3-4 coats can be applied in one day. (The can sizes are different, 750ml vs 1000ml, which is why I show the price per Liter.)  Epifanes Hi Gloss is rebranded as West Marine 5 Star Premium, saving you $15 on this popular top coat varnish.
