We recently tried Wipe-On Poly for the first time on a small project that is made of Maple and Walnut. The maple part looks really good, but the finish on the walnut part is still sticky after 4 days. Any ideas why?
The piece was first finished with Watco Danish Oil and allowed to dry for several days. It looked like it could use a little more shine so we decided to try the Wipe On Poly. Could there be some sort of reaction between the two finishes? Maybe we put it on too thick? It's been a little humid. Why would the maple be perfect while the walnut is still sticky (in some places but not others)?
