BigGrin Hi KB
Some people will use either a satin or matt varnish depending on the look you want but many will use Danish oil in a natural finish. One note on Danish Oil though as you add coats it will darken the finish but this can also help in getting the finish/colour you want. Hope this helps

Hi Andy,

Thanks a lot for the quick response. It's good to follow the builds as we, South Africa, has only started with the Sovereign of the Seas. This is also my first build and I enjoy it thouroughly.

Thanks
Kobus
