TotalBoat Wood Sealer is a one-part, exceptionally clear coating that seals and primes all types of bare wood prior to varnishing—even plywood and oily woods like teak. It prevents the wood from checking and cracking, and keeps varnish finishes from peeling. Two to three coats of Wood Sealer dry to a smooth, level, glossy surface ready to accept 1-part varnish, for beautiful results every time. TotalBoat Wood Sealer dries clear, emphasizing the grain and natural color of the bare wood beneath it. And it won’t muddle the color of marine filler stains applied to bare wood. Just be sure the stain is completely dry before applying Wood Sealer, and test on a small area for compatibility.

Wood Sealer is easy to apply without thinning first, dries quickly, and doesn’t require sanding between coats. Overcoat Wood Sealer with 1-part TotalBoat Lust or Gleam 2.0 varnish without thinning the varnish first, and without sanding between coats, and you’ll finish much faster. Also, Wood Sealer’s UV filters extend UV protection all the way down to the wood fibers, which extends the longevity and beauty of the varnish finish.

TotalBoat Wood Sealer compares to Interlux Interprime Wood Sealer Clear 1026 and Pettit 2018 EZ Wood Sealer (formerly Old Salem), but it does not require sanding between coats, and it contains a UV- filtering component.

Wood Sealer is not a finish coating and should be overcoated with 1-part varnish to provide depth, higher gloss, and more complete UV protection. Do not apply 2-part varnishes, 2-part polyurethane paints, or 2-part epoxies over TotalBoat Wood Sealer.

It’s easy to apply by brushing, rolling, or spraying on interior or exterior wood surfaces. Allow 24 hours drying time before applying varnish.
