So now I'm sanding everything in preparation for the fourth coat, and letting it dry an extra day. | I have had good luck thining the finish and then applying it with a 'rub-er'. Still need to level a bit with fine wet/dry sand paper with a lubricant (soap and water works fine) after the finish is well hardened.
