Hey everyone. New to the forum here.
I have a project I'm working on finishing using Zar stain - oil based Moorish teak. I applied it, let it sit for Ten minutes and wiped off the excess. The resulted color was prefect. I let it dry overnight, about 12 hours. I checked the stain and it was completely dry. This morning I started applying the poly - Varathane oil based satin - with a foam brush. Very quickly I noticed that whenever I set the brush down that a line would appear. I use a light hand when applying the poly but the stain was rubbing off while applying causing lines, blotches, streaks and light spots. I couldn't correct the blemishes and I ended up wiping off the poly , with most of the stain coming off with it, so refinishing would be easier. Not a huge deal as this piece was just a flat surface. It's almost like the poly had a solvent affect on the stain. Any idea what went on here? Any suggestions to prevent this?
Thanks.
