My 1st post!
I made a nice 2 year old Iroko Adirondack chair that looked great for it's first summer and then suffered under a polythene cover over the winter, then the finish started to look pretty moth eaten over this summer with grey patches of weathered wood showing through and a roughness and blistering.
I am going to sand this grey wood away and then recoat with a spar or yacht type of outdoor varnish, will this work?
I know the problems with outdoor finishes (now!), would a breathable MVP finish be better. I have tried this on a yew table but it stayed quite tacky for weeks and I am not keen to try this on a seat.
Any advice, thanks folks.
