Crystal Sheen, it is a crystal clear deep gloss finish. More durable than Envirotex. No bubble issues and I use 1 coat.

DUDE !!! envirotex is weak ,, Interrior use...too rubbery..If you get a pointer u can peel like a grape.....I dropped this needle in the surf yesterday on a dropping tide..(sinker) I tried to pick it up in between waves but I couldn't reach it..Its was between three barnicle incrusted rocks ,going back and forth in the surf dissapearing under one of them ..I fished the tide out and went back to get it after the water line went down ...I couldn't believe my eyes...Not a scratch...this is an envirotex plug I peeled and did over...Clear coat is very good too ..No more blowing bubbles either ...that will make you mental or in your case worse.. System three is marine quality.. Be careful if you break out in a rash on your forehead or inside of your forearms ,you have become sensitive to it and might have problems ever working with it again ..No Lie..nasty stuff !!! Don't get it on your skin ...I'm using SB112 because system 3 rep steared me that way..(used on surfboards)...My bubba and yours is using clear coat with great success....... u owe me 5 for all this...I owed u 3...u still owe me 2..

Been using epoxy but now i've seen the light ,besides epoxy doesn't really hold up after tossing 'em a lot,at least for me.Anyway, been doing some "testing" fer someone else and after seeing how the stuff holds up that's what i'm going to. "tRB"

I think you would have a longer life expectancy by smoking some plutonium than using that stuff.
