Default How to Apply the Last Coat of Poly for a Dining Table Top?

For arguments sake, has anybody done a descent job of poly with w/ a

brush,
or foam without bubbles. Simple ya, na is sufficient. If speciically so,
was it thinner, and how much?


I spread poly straight up with foam pads. The thing with poly is to spread
it, not paint it. Work poly at all and you introduce air bubbles. I pull
it as evenly as I possibly can across the piece and then I flatten it with
1200 or so and buff back to the shine I want.
