I'd use  at least 2 coats of West System epoxy on all surfaces...

105 rosin, and 207 hardener..  that hardener will give you a clear finish when it cures...

You can google West Systems, to find out more about them..

This will give you a hard, weather resitant finish, more coats will build up a thicker finish...

Two things Poly or varnish either marine or just ext. will peel after time outdoors we had to sand and recoat marine varnish every 6 mo. in Fl.on Hatteras  yachts.  and as far as west system or any other epoxy it is not ultraviolet protected and will also peel. the cheepest idea was to use thompson'e water seal it comes in colors too and can be pressure washed and  recoated as needed. we are only talking about BC ply and the outdoors.

Appreciate all the input.  Made a run by HD on the way home and looked at several options.  Some items were just to expensive for the price point I needed.  Picked up a sample that "seemed" to be the answer.  Will post pictures when the project is finished.  

Thanks again, Ron
