u/Balcion

I’m at a loss with finishing furniture it makes me want to quit. I tried many coats of shellac and sanded it all down and just went with wipe on poly. It’s 65 degrees and I did the recommended 3 coats with dry times inbetween. It’s water based minwax clear satin and it’s hard to see but left this horrible sort of spider cracking looking thing and I’ve now had to sand it all off AGAIN. Why would wipe on poly do this? I can’t get it to go completely away with any amount of buffing or steel wool.
