The title says it all.
I'm using a new gallon can of Minwax satin poly on stained oak. Wiped on the first coat thinned 25% with mineral spirits as often described in this group. Sanded and brushed on a full-strength second coat a week after the wipe-on coat. Now, a week later, it still looks as if I just got done putting it on - very shiny. The wiped-on coat did have a 'satin' appearance once dry, though not as much as expected. Can says it dries in 4-6 hours. It feels dry. Temperature maintained at 75-77, AC keeping humidity down. Ideas / suggestions? I got the satin to avoid the steel wool cycle. |
