| The next step was to varnish the inside of the spar ladders and webs. Since I was using PolyFiber Epoxy Varnish which emits highly flammable fumes, I figured it would not be good idea to apply it in the basement right next to the furnace pilot light. I moved the ladders and webs into the garage for a few days. | ||||||
