As I approach something like the seventh day ( ) and the varnish on the teak box still hasn't dried properly I'm left wondering what to do next?
I think I will wait until it's dry, - will obviously take a few more days (if not then out comes the nitromors!!). Don't fancy trying to sand down tacky varnish!! :shock:
When it is dry I want to put some additional protection on it and am wondering if it's possible to use any form of oil over the varnish? A bit of me says don't be daft, - no chance and the other bit says at least ask!!
So, - can I?!! and if so what?
As I type I also wonder if the first coat does dry will that act as a 'sealer' and subsequent coats will dry normally?
The main learning point here is don't varnish teak unless you have at least 2 weeks to wait for it to dry.
