I live in MD and would love to find somewhere I can pick up some Bartley's.

Any ideals?

I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Most recently, about a month ago, I ordered gel varnish online from a place called klockit (actually a clock parts supplier). I had it within a week. There was some confusion because the label said "gel stain, clear satin", not gel varnish. Apparently the new manufacturer added "clear satin" to existing gel stain labels to save money, when in fact its gel varnish inside the can.
Whatever the case may be a really like the stuff. Good luck.

I heard awhile back that they were out of business....second-hand info so who knows how accurate that info is!
And no, I have no connection to them!

the original manufacturer went out of business a little over a year ago I believe, but another company, Seagrave coatings, is now making it. They have a big backlog apparently and are taking a while to manufacture it. Thus it's been tough to get a hold of. That's why I jumped at the chance to order it online.
