Newbie here. Is it okay to put a wax finish over an oil based
polyurethane varnish as a final coat?

Thanks

Bob

Sure...no problem, but why do you need to?

Sure, Bob. If you cut back the varnish with 0000 steel wool then wax it and
polish it, it'll look a lot more "natural", as well as cutting down any nibs
in the varnish.

I wax everything whether it needs it or not. It's all part of the process
for me.

Yes, but Minwax suggests waiting 30 days until the poly has fully cured. I
usually wait a week or so.

Wipe on or brush on? I'll bet the wipe on cures in a week...

The software said it ran under Windows 98/NT/2000, or better.
So I installed it on Linux...

I like to wait several weeks for a finish to cure (and fully harden),
then I apply wax. I use wax on painted pieces too.
