[Public-List] Cetol vs west systemRe: Seagrass

Richard, 

My take on this is to use an oil finish, especially in the northern climates. It is easier to repair and more importantly touch up. It doesn't provide the depth of a varnished surface, but I believe is a good compromise which allows the beauty of the wood to shine.

Considering redoing the toe rail around # 438. Is there any reason not to 
redo it with 1 or 2 coats of west system and never do it again, as opposed 
to 4 or 5 coats of cetol, and another yearly? 
Thanks, Rick.
