Nice.
Jeff, bright finishing aka 'varnishing' the topsides protects just as well as paint,
it's just that most people have never liked the labor required to keep it looking
shiny.
BTW what folks tend to call 'enamel' paint originated as pigmented varnish and the
physical protective qualities of both were about the same, something that is especially
true with today's options in topcoat chemistry. The main advantages of the pigmented
varnish aka paint were a degree of UV protection (very dependent on pigment and
chemistry) and ease of upkeep. Slappin' on another lick o' paint is quicker than the
care of prep and application required of a good varnish job.
