TotalBoat Gleam Varnish Features:
Apply up to 3 Coats in 1 Day
Gleam’s fast-drying formula lets you recoat in as little as 1 hour at 72°F, so you can apply up to 3 coats in a single day. Use this high-build varnish to finish projects faster while creating a beautiful, durable finish.
No Sanding Needed Between Coats
When using Gleam, no sanding is required between coats if applied within 48 hours. This time-saving feature speeds up application without compromising adhesion or aesthetics. Gleam is easy to use with less work needed to achieve great results.
Max UV Protection
Formulated with advanced UV inhibitors, Gleam delivers long-lasting protection against sun damage. The flexible, waterproof finish withstands even the harshest marine environments. Resists yellowing, cracking, and peeling.
Gloss or Satin Finish
Choose Gloss for a radiant amber shine or Satin for a smooth, low-sheen look that highlights the natural wood grain. For the best Satin finish, build up with Gloss first and then apply Satin on the final coats. Both finishes offer excellent marine-grade durability.
Brush, Roll, or Spray for a Beautiful Finish
For great results, there are a few spar varnish best practices to follow:
Proper Prep:
Check the Weather: For best results, apply in temperatures between 60-85°F with humidity below 85%. Avoid direct sunlight, high humidity, or impending rain. Do not apply below 45°F or above 105°F.
Prepare the Surface: Follow our technical data sheet for material-specific preparation. Sand the surface with 220-grit or 320-grit sandpaper for proper adhesion. Wipe down with a cotton rag and suitable solvent to remove contaminants before varnishing.
Apply a Seal Coat: Thin the first coat by 25% with the appropriate TotalBoat thinner to help penetrate wood grain. A second seal coat may be applied if the first is highly absorbed. If desired, use TotalBoat Wood Sealer instead for faster sealing and better varnish adhesion. Never use Satin for seal coats.
Rolling or Brushing Application:
If desired for improved flow, thin Gleam 5-10% with Brushing Thinner 101 (always aim for the minimum amount needed for improved gloss and faster drytimes).
Use a high-quality natural bristle brush or solvent-safe roller covers. Apply in thin, even coats using long, smooth strokes.
Spray Application:
Thin 10-20% with Spray Thinner 101 (always aim for the minimum amount needed for improved gloss and faster drytimes).
Apply in thin, even coats vertically using long, smooth strokes.
Dry Time & Recoating:
Based on the temperature, allow 1-8 hours between coats, with no sanding needed if applied within 48 hours. Apply no more than 3 coats per day.
If sanding is needed, wait 24 hours, lightly scuff-sand with 320-grit sandpaper and remove dust with a clean rag or compressed air.
Apply a minimum of 4-6 coats for improved gloss, depth, and UV protection. If using Satin, build up coats with Gloss first, sand lightly with 320-grit sandpaper, then apply Satin in final 1-2 coats for a low-sheen finish.
