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.

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.

Remove dust at each sanding stage with a vacuum and then a static cloth.
