Anyone know how to make oldshool varnish?

I bought it, 37 bucks. I’m not anti-amazon, but I do try to give other shops a shot first.

Not yet, I’m wet sanding currently wet sanding my doors for paint prep. An annoying process, but having exposed the original wood I see that the doors are much nicer than what’s on the market today.

The varnish article andy posted tells you just enough to want to know more. While there is some info about different varnishes, there’s not an actual recipe to produce a useable finish. Probably someone the author interviewed knew how to do it, but that was 25 years ago now. I’ll have to experiment a little.
