Wood Working Question

[jeremiah]

I am refinishing an old wooden table , that I will place under a covered deck ,outdoors.

The table has holes in the wood.

 

Does anyone have recommendations for an outdoor satin finish  and a clear epoxy wood filler product ?

 

I have looked on line for the clear filler, I have seen some marine products, but these products are sold by the gallon, approximately $300-$400.

There are wood fillers that are described as clear, but have a tan color, I want a "water clear"  hard wood epoxy.

I need,  maybe a pint or couple tubes of epoxy wood filler.

I have seen tables with clear filler at bars and restaurants.

West System 105 is the best in my opinion.  It’s not inexpensive - but it’s worth it.  I think a lot of woodworking folks are also using Total Boat’s slow cure epoxy - but I haven’t had much experience with it personally.

I know you can get West System in quart quantities.  I’m not sure about pints.

I guess I should note that most of those epoxies are two parts - a resin and a hardener.  So for instance, with the West System 105 epoxy - you’d also need a smaller quantity of 205 hardener.

Thanks MacGyver !

Sounds like what I am after.

I've used Total Boat with success.  I'd stop by Woodcraft in Franklin and talk to the folks there about what you're doing and let them make some recommendations.  They are good folks to know and very knowledgable.
