How do you guys store the varnish that you use to finish wraps? I am thinking about pouring varnish into a bunch of small glass bottles and sealing well,
then using them up one by one as long as the varnish lasts. At this point, I use a wipe-on varnish for the blank, then wrap on my guides, then varnish wraps
(with spar). I guess no matter what order you do things, most makers varnish wraps individually at some stage. Anyway, thanks in advance.

Some Ace Stores carry the Man of War in half pint cans, if not they will order it for you...
Especially in the South were humidity will kick your glue in short time...
