Hi all,
Beginner woodworker here with what is probably a basic question. After testing a few varnishes I have found one I really like but I'm still getting the application technique right (using a brush) and seem to be leaving thicker `blobs` usually around the edges. these are slightly darker and raised up noticeably.
Apart from practicing more, I'm assuming if I thinned the varnish somewhat it would both spread a little easier, find it easier to settle/flatten itself and hopefully help avoid the blob effect I am making.
The varnish is http://www.johnstonespaint.com/paint...r-wood-varnish if that helps.
What can I thin it safely with, making sure I don't compromise the positive/protective effects of the varnish and what ratio should I dilute it by?
thank you
