AND I KNOW I HAVE SEEN IT! ... sometime in the past. I would love to find a thick, super hard, fast drying clear coat, anyone know? I tried MW spar urethane but that stuff seems a bit rediculous... 24 hours later the first coat is soft in the thicker (run) areas, a hanging hand saw handle. You know, you gotta coat the whole handle and hang it to dry. Then when I sand it, I go lightly enough, and most of it simply sands right off the wood! It seems totaly futile. Any good ideas, or the right product out there?
