In Response To: Tiny Bubbles (Brian Wegener)

: I've started varnishing the Spring Run using the "blue towel"
: method and I am having trouble with bubbles.

: Should I thin the varnish before I do another coat?

: Any suggestions are welcome.

: Brian

Just an aside thought: Are you brushing/wiping in both directions. Most finishes like to be brushed in one direction. Going back and forth will often cause bubbles and streaks, depending on how much liquid is in your brush/cloth.
