Epoxy two part wood varnish for sure. For the solvents in the covering process. Mark

Brush on epoxy. Epoxy is two part. If it isn't two part it isn't epoxy. Wait a couple of minutes. Wipe as much excess off as possible. Don't use single part varnish or any paint.

Stits (Poly-Fiber) makes a 2 part epoxy varnish. That's what I used. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catal...ickkey=7020805

A guy that’s been covering planes for decades told me to use Polyfibers epoxy varnish.
