I know this has been asked and answered in various different forms before but I believe there are some specifics in my situation below that might warrant a different approach, so I'm asking this again.
I finished a large (11 feet long) walnut dining table that I made with 2 coats of Osmo Polyx Oil and one coat of Osmo Top Oil. Then, about 4 months ago in my infinite wisdom, I decided to put some Minwax Paste Finishing Wax on top of it. Not sure what the heck I was thinking...maybe I didn't have enough sleep or was just a period of temporary insanity on my part, but I should not have touched it (I think I was just trying to add an extra layer of protection or something).
The wax did not go on well, event though I "thinned" it with some mineral spirits on the #0000 steel wool that I applied it with and rubbed it out with a soft cloth after. Anyways, now the table top looks horrible with blotches of wax. I'd like to get rid of it once and for all and just maybe add a coat or two of the Osmo Polyx and maybe Top Oil.
What's the best course of action here? I've read suggestions ranging from using rags with mineral spirit (or naphtha) to down right stripping the whole thing and sanding it down.
