I've not heard of that happening with Cetol. But I'm just a newbie with Cetol, so I can't say much with authority. I'll try to update this post with what I learn re: Cetol as I gain more experience.

I've never done it so I don't know the effect but that may be the problem. You can put varnish over Cetol and Cetol over Cetol without a problem. Then you just might have to wait awhile for it to harden. I use both. I Cetol in the hard to reach areas and Varnish where people will notice. Cetol is generally not as pretty/clear as Varnish but takes less coats (3) and is much more durable than Varnish. The newer clear Cetol is much better than the original which had an orange stain and masked the wood grain. Hope that helps.

It looks great, but as I run my had across it, I feel "drag"- like the difference between newly waxed and unwaxed fiberglass. The untreated brightwork adjacent to where I left off still has the smooth "glassy" feel. I followed the instructions to a 'T'. This is my first experience with Sikkens. I don't know what the PO used on the brightwork previously (18 months ago or so), but I thought it was this product since I found it in a drawer below. Will this smooth out with time (I applied it yesterday afternoon) or did I do something wrong?
