I am building some kitchen cabinets that looked like they have "chalk dust" or "milk" in the finish. Heres what I did so please tell me if I did something wrong.
Red oak cabinets, oil stain, dried for 24-36hrs, wiped down with denatured alcohol, 2 coats Target wb shellac sealer, light sand, wiped with damp cloth, 2 coats Target usl, light sand, wipe with damp cloth, final coat satin usl. While the cabinets were wet they looked awesome, the longer they dry the "whiter" the finish gets. I let each coat of Target dry at least 1 hr. They have been dry for a week and look terrible. Tonight I sanded off finish and restained. Thanks for any tips.
