A lot of talk about Cetol and other finishes on here. I hear a lot of good stuff about Cetol, and it is what's already on my exterior brightwork (from PO), but it's pretty worn now. All the talk seems to suggest several coats of the Marine, followed by several coats of the clear gloss. But I'm specifically looking for a non-gloss finish that still has the look and feel of stained wood rather than a lacquered coating. Can I just use the Cetol Marine on its own? I recognize it would probably need yearly touch-ups due to the lack of extra protection the gloss provides, but it should still work well, right?
