Agreed Jim. I didn't want to mention that to confuse the question, but I often use two coats on table tops, waiting 24 hours between applications. The important part is not to over do the second coat or it will not look like a consistent. That's why I only do it on table tops, where it's easy to do. A complex furniture piece is a lot harder to do without looking like poo. And, quite honestly, IMHO it isn't needed anyway.
