Pretty same process so many other have done

 

1st - Green Scotch‑Brite

Scrub till you don’t see the nasty brown soapy water.

 

2nd - Stained Red oak 2 coats.

Minwax 70040444 Wood Finish Penetrating Stain.

2 light coats and waited 2 days before adding Varnish.

 

3rd - spar varnish spray - 4 coats maybe 5

Minwax 33250000 Helmsman Spar Urethane Aerosol, 11.5 ounce, Gloss

Waited 3 days for it to cure before moving to the center section.

 

4 - Black semi gloss

Let it sit a day before removing tape and tee shirt protecting the varnish.
