Brian:
We tested Man-O-War with the first series of tests last year and found no significant difference between it and Helmsman. After our first tests we quit recommending Helmsman and began searching for a better solution. That is why we are testing other finishes. Our testing experience indicates a single stage finish will not be as durable as two stage processes can be because of the deterioration from sunlight, as you have experienced. Smith & Co
