I`ve been trying to get an even sheen on a spalted maple bench I've made but in some of the soft areas it just keeps soaking up the vanish. This is after 7-8 coats.
Now some areas are too glossy and the softer areas are still dull.
Was thinking of simply giving it a few coats of wax, figuring the wax won't soak in.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
