Is there any kind of varnish used for the finish?

Yes, it has a light coat of something in a satin finish, low gloss, but with a bit of reflective quality. I find it pleasing since it lets the wood grain show very nicely. It has a pleasant feel, as well.

Nothing that can be discerned with the naked eye has been used, but of course it is 'finidhed' so to speak in that it is not raw wood.

No. It doesn't have a veneer finish. It is stain directly on wood. It's nice.

There's something on it that gives it a nice finish. Whether it's varnish or not, I am not sure.

Yes, you should be able to use any base of varnish, water or oil based based, shellac, lacquer, polyurethane (water or oil based).Pretty sure that it says that in the description.

There is no finish. I finished mine with a clear waterproofer to keep it from turning grey. It brought out the natural cedar grain/color in the wood.

Ours is stained, not painted. There is no finish over it so it is not glossy at all.

There isn't a finish it's natural however I had a clear coat brushed on mine since mine are outside. It gave it a richer color.

They come with a finish on them. Not sure if is varnish or laquer or what but you'd have to sand it off to stain it.

I am not sure - I am using a basic oil based minwax finish on my outdoor project and the result is beautiful!! I did find a website that addresses the diffrent types/uses of finishes based on product content; indoor vs. outdoor. Maybe the site can help - Good luck with your project, here is the site address. http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/articles/difference-between-spar-varnish-and-regular-varnish/

I would say no. It is wood and I cant see the varnish holding up. Hope that helps.

This item has a protective oil and polish finish. It is not considered "varnish" due to the harsh chemicals that will not pass the USA standards. Let us know if you have any further questions.

HiSince you are not worried about the finish, you may try Goo Be Gone. It can be purchased almost anywhere. It may not even do any damage to the surface either.

I used a small amount of lacquer thinner...working without it being thinned a bit was like brushing honey on! Thinning it a little made it wonderful to work with, and the finish is awesome! Did a wood top for making a bathroom vanity out of an antique buffet. Wonderful product!

It's been several years since I bought mine, but the finish at that time was satin (no gloss), almost "natural". That being said, it does not show scratches and dings like a glossy surface would.

Not at all. It doesn't have a varnished finish. I'm still very happy with this popper. I make sure to soak the moving parts in hot water and Dawn so the oil doesn't build up.

Neither really. It's a wood grain finish painted black. I would say that it is not Hi-Gloss, not Flat, and maybe somewhere between Semi-Gloss and Satin finish.
