ketone resin

Polycyclohexanone is a crystal-clear synthetic resin that can be dissolved in mineral spirits to produce a rapid-drying varnish that is resistant to yellowing in UV (though it tends toward yellowing in the absence of light); however these synthetic resins, such as Laropal, tend to be more brittle and risk oxidation over time that results in the need for aggressive polar solvent mixtures to remove.
