Eddie sounds like you've replaced your Creek Chub Encyclopedia ,to "Wood Finishes And How They Drive You Crazy" on your night stand.

The Epifanes Wood Finish is a varnish that contains Tung Oil and Phenolic Resins,whatever they are , and UV protectors.

They use it on boats in the tropics where regular varnish won't hold up under the tropical sun. Tung oil is a great sealer.
Gives a beautiful mirror finish but i have never tried it on plugs as i don't know how it would adhere to paint.
Of course $30 a Qt has nothing to do with it.

Have to start with a 10% solution, very thick, and go up to 50% then 100% so it's multiple coats, but no sanding within 72 hours.

If you try it , use the Gloss finish and crank up your paint box cause it stinks worse than U pol.
