As in acrylic! Yes, I've proven that in the past! Only marine varnish for me now. It's much nicer to work with, for me, anyway. It needs more skill but the finish is much deeper and it's far tougher.

Knock resistance is also needed for my application as the finished inductor will be taken down and stored from time to time.
