Good thought, but I only stirred it gently until the gunk was off the bottom.

One of the old oil polyurethanes that we used had instructions for high gloss stir lightly and for satin shake well. I suspect that the air bubbles changed the appearance. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Vos" <[email protected] <mailto:vos17%40iowatelecom.net> > To: <[email protected] <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> > Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 10:12 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] My mistake has turned into a puzzle It's not a stupid question, though I would be the stupid one if I did that. No, it is an oil base poly. The milky color makes me think moisture, but I have no clue how that can be happening.

Are you using oil based poly? If you have water based poly, the mineral spirits won't mix because there is some oil in the spirits. Probably not the problem, just the first thing that comes to mind. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Vos To: [email protected] <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 8:00 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] My mistake has turned into a puzzle Yesterday I told you about my mistake in using the gunk at the bottom of the polyurethane can. Now I have started a fresh can, stirred well. The first coat went on beautifully. The second coat is showing signs of the milky streaking again. I thin the poly with some mineral spirits, and wipe it on with a clean cloth. I've made sure to do it in a warm dry place, working the poly as little as possible to get it spread. Does anyone have any guesses as to why I am getting milky streaks in the finish?
