Ronseal Yacht Varnish - Satin

Ronseal Yacht Varnish Satin is a high-performance varnish designed to protect and beautify wood surfaces exposed to harsh outdoor conditions.

• UV Resistant: Shields wood from harmful UV rays, preventing fading and graying over time.
• Waterproof: Creates a waterproof barrier to protect wood from moisture, including saltwater.
