For Christmas I was going to make a bath tub tray for the wife since she is both a bath time enthusiast and an avid reader. I used pine 1x2s, had wood conditioner, white wash stain, and I was going to finish with helmsman urathane because I thought overkill in under rated when it comes to protecting wood from water. Stain goes on wonderfully, now time for the helmsman (spray) I laid down the first light coat and it didn’t dry for 4 days. Then come to realize the finish didn’t come out clear. Turned the whole tray from white to a slightly tan white.
I’ve since sanded and refinished with a different product that worked as prescribed. But is there something I missed. All products were oil based, stain was given a full day to dry. My garage stayed at about 65 degrees.
any thoughts?
