How to apply a Wipe on Poly Finish to large pieces of Furniture.

[@verybland]

Thanks for the advice. It made refinishing my mom's 30 year old solid oak table a lot less daunting of a challenge.

Right on! I am glad it helped.

I'm just starting to finish a 60" rubber wood desk top and really needed this advice for larger surfaces. Thanks!

Great video! Thank you. Is the Danish oil step necessary if using the wipe on poly over a gel stain?

[@MadNerdWorkshop]

No not at all, you can even apply Wipe on Poly by itself.

Just curious why you used a danish oil and a wipe on poly. Does the Danish oil not give a very durable finish? Will the Danish oil darken the wood slightly or show the depth of the grain better first? That's what I'm looking for a kind of depth to my wood grain but not really a different colour and obviously you used an oil based poly over the danish oil correct?

[@MadNerdWorkshop]

Poly is a much stronger finish than Danish oil. I use the Danish to enhance the grain and give it some depth. You can use oil or water based poly over danish oil just let the Danish oil dry completely - I generally wait a week to 10 days, although the can states that the danish oil is dry after 72 hours. If you use the water based Wipe-on Poly, the danish oil will add a warmth to the wood.
