Yes, Spar varnish is a marine quality exterior varnish that can be used over many surfaces, however it does have an amber hue that will affect the color of whatever surface is being coated. If you're looking for a long-lasting crystal clear coating then a better choice would be a water-based polyurethane coating.

Can varnished wood be painted with white paint?
Paint can be applied over varnish, but it needs to be a compatible type of paint for the type of varnish, and the surface needs to be prepared by removing loose material, dirt and sanding. If it is not a compatible paint the surface needs to be etch primed. Contact a local paint supplier for advice.

Can you put conversion varnish over latex paint?
Yes. I have a furniture company and we use this all of the time. Best recipe we have found is using a tinted latex primer or flat latex paint, scuff with 320 grit paper, paint second coat. After drying, lightly sand with 400 grit paper to remove any roughness, spray with vinyl sealer, scuff again with 400 grit paper and spray conversion varnish. Remove dust at each sanding stage with a vacuum and then a static cloth.
