Ship's Wheel Resto Minwax

01 Sep 23:

We applied multiple coats of Minwax Wood Finish Gunstock tint to the ship's wheel until it wouldn't take any more, then let it dry for a week. Next up was 2 coats of Minwax Helmsman Spar Urethane Clear Satin.


Minwax Helmsman used to be Capn Jack's go to varnish, readily available at local stores. When he was feeling rich and near a marine supply store, he might pony up for a can of Pettit Captain's, and nurse that can for a year or two. We are interested to see how the Helmsman holds up outdoors, albeit under a shade tree.
