Loonworks finish?

[pklonowski]

I have a Loonworks canoe in my shop for minor scratches on the gunnels. I'm pretty sure Tom MacKenzie used Epiphanes varnish, and it's a satin finish, but I'm wondering about the specific product he used? Seems there are more than one variety of Epiphanes Satin/Matte. Or, how much does it matter?

Many thanks ahead of time!

I am not aware of more than one type? If I use matte I always start with multiple coats of Epifanes gloss and then finish with matte.

That process sounds familiar.

As for the different products, I think what I'm looking at is all the same product, in different languages. That's not something I've seen before.

Thank you!
