Regarding Waterlox...
I wonder if I would have to TOTALLY sand away all of the Cetol I have remaining on my exterior to apply Waterlox? Or would a light sanding
suffice to clean/smooth the surface?
Does anyone know?
Thanks

excerpt from email

Yes, there is a distributor locator on the home page of the website in the
lower right hand corner. This area accepts a zip code and will locate the
closest distributors in the area. I will caution that most distributors do
NOT carry our Marine Finish product (recommended for outdoor projects, like
boat woodwork), so they may be better off calling us here at the office at
800.321.0377 and we can ship to them.

As for the Cetol question. Yes, you will need to sand down to bare wood
before applying the Waterlox system. Cetol is a surface coating, so it will
eventually fail, turn black and peel/crack/chip. Waterlox penetrates into
the pores of the wood, so you'd want to be down to bare wood to experience
the maximum benefits.

For exterior wood surfaces, 2 coats of Waterlox Original
Sealer/Finish/Marine Sealer and 1 coat of Waterlox Original Marine Finish.

Hope this helps and let me know if I can be of further assistance to you.

Thanks.
