Re: New Officers

Re: Smith's CPES
CPES is great stuff. I used all over my cruiser. On bright work you must remember that CEPS does not contain any UV protection. Therefore, in order to protect the integrity of the stain below the CEPS, you must maintain the varnish and its UV component fairly often. If not well maintained, the stain...
