Re: Varnishing Woodie
GB, I couldn't agree with you more. The look of a new maple body, with an automotive clear finish, in my opinion looks hideous, almost too white. Over years, the varnish takes on a nice "golden amber" hue, almost like a wooden boat. If you drive your car enough, it's a fact of nature that you will eventually get rained on. My take on it is, that life is too short to worry about rain and I'm not going to stop driving my Woodie long distances. If I get rot, I'll repair it.
