The brand that immediately comes to mind is WEST system epoxy, an American product. This is absolutely waterproof - something that very few coatings are. But coming back to reality for a brief moment, your dishrack is not going to be submerged for 24 hours a day. What's the matter with a good quality exterior varnish? If that's insufficiently high-tech for you, make it a polyurethane varnish. Either will give a finish that will be quite tough enough for your needs. -- John Hogg Computer Systems Research Institute, UofT {allegra,cornell,decvax,ihnp4,linus,utzoo}!utcsri!hogg
