Correcting a bad finish on a stained / varnished desktop
Hi all,
I recently made my first attempt at staining and varnishing a piece of wood for my standing desk but didn't do it properly and want to have another go at it. I botched the varnish by applying the poly (image 1 below) too soon after the last coat of stain (image 2 below), which made it look patchy (image 3 below).
Advice required
How should I go about fixing my poor job from last time?
I would like to do a proper job of the varnish, also darken the wood further and get a glossier look so my thoughts were
Is there anything i'm missing here, that I should be doing when fixing a previously bad varnishing job?
