There is a well known problem with anecdotal evidence. I knew a guy who
lived in Vermont. He chain smoked unfiltered Camel cigarettes from about
the age of 14. He lived to age 92 without getting lung cancer. He died
at age 92 while cutting branches from a large tree he was going to cut
down. He fell off the ladder. See that! Smoking didn't kill him!
I once worked with another guy who refused to ever wear a seat belt in
his car. He had read one story about one person who died because they
could not get their seatbelt undone after driving into a river. That guy
died when he hit a light pole going about 30 mph and went through the
windshield. Left a wife and 3 school aged children, but at least he
didn't drown.

Well, I'm just jumping in here without knowing this whole thread,
and I don't want to cross Bill, B/C I know that is like throwing raw
meat in front of a Pit Bull - but- in 2005 when I brought my boat back
to the shop for a refit, I was using a lot of PPG Concept. Over the
cabin paint, I applied a couple coats of PPG Strataclear, B/C they
said it was the hardest clear coating they had. (I also put ground
pearls into it, which, by the way looks fabulous) After I had done
the teak in cetol, I had some leftover Strataclear in the can, (no
pearls) and I painted it on the teak around the companionway as an
experiment . Over the Cetol. It still looks fantastic 12 years later.

That stuff is not formulated for use on wood, or over Cetol! Being a
two-part urethane, it will also be a major job to strip off when it
fails. My thought is that it is just asking for trouble. I looked up
Chroma Clear. It is an industrial finish that is only sold to
professionals and requires an advanced type of NIOSH respirator among
other precautions. People with any sort of respiratory issues or
asthma are warned not to get anywhere near it. Those are my thoughts! :-)

Putting anything on top of Cetol sort of defeats its main advantage.
Cetol breathes, which is beneficial to the wood, and maintenance is
easy because a quick scrub with plain water and a 3M kitchen scrubby
is all the prep work usually required to add a fresh coat or two when
needed. The slight softness is a PLUS. If you top coat it, you lose
all of that.and may as well just do labor intensive varnish without
the Cetol.

Our boatyard manager (graduate of Great Lakes School of Wooden
Boatbuilding) told me Cetol should be coated with at least 2 coats
of Captain's Varnish (or similar?). Says Cetol finish by itself is
too soft for his liking. Has worked great for me...
