Have put some gloss Dulux polyurathane on a table top, but the end result is
just far too glossy and it just shows up every brushing blemish. Is there any way I can add something to it to make it produce a matt finish (other than rubbing it down after its painted on) ? Failing that does anyone have experience of which is the best 'matt' polyurathane clear varnish out of Dulux, Rustins or Ronseal? Thanks for advice. |

Rub down the surface with very fine grade paper (240), and then apply beeswax (i.e. a proper polish containing beeswax, or pure beeswax, but not a spray polish) and either don't buff it or do so very lightly. Yes you can put wax on top of varnish. |
