Varathane _is_ a brand name -- a RustOleum product, specifically.

Not sure what you're really asking for--a varnish with UV protection or
a product that is actually nearly colorless?

If the former, all varnishes will yellow some w/ time, UV-inhibitors
can help, but don't eliminate it completely. All varnishes have a
certain amount of color if you're talking of initial color.

If you really want a "non-yellowing" finish out of the can, your best
bet is probably either an ultra-blond shellac or lacquer.

Knowing more about the project and end objective would undoubtedly help
w/ more specific advice.


I did some stenciling of roses on a white surfaced, wooden bread box,
and I want to seal it with varnish or something like that, so it can be
wiped easily without being too careful, but I want it to stay white and
not turn yellow as I've seen some varnishes do. Maybe I'll try the
ultra-blond shellac. Thanks.
