Material: Varnish boo boo(?)

I just put a coat of varnish on the hull of my S&G. Having (foolishly) believed reading about thinning it with denatured alcohol, I did. It seemed to go on well.

Only after finishing , I read 'not compatible with varnishes' on the can of alcohol. Am I screwed? I am watching a sample of the varnish but it is too early to tell anything. If it sets up, no problem. If not, what should I do?
