I'm still new to finishing, but have been doing research, along with some trial and error, and would like to offer some input. It may be possible that the sanding sealer didn't have enough time to cure prior to applying the wipe-on poly, and is not serving as a good catalyst for the poly coats. Here are a few other factors to consider in regards to the longer than expected curing times-
The type of wood- Natural oils in some woods such as Teak, Rosewood, Cocobolo, and Ebony are said to work against the the normal curing time for many varnishes and sealers.
The room temperature: Ideal curing for varnishes occurs between 70 and 80 degrees. You may need to find a way to slightly warm the wood surface to allow more oxidation to occur with the poly.
I was thinking humidity as well, but it seems that humidity be more of a factor with water-based finishes.
I would try giving the poly more time to cure, and warm the work area/ wood surface if possible to see if that helps. Do everything to control any dust from settling on the finish while it's still trying to cure. That's a great suggestion Bas! A great way to easily isolate the slow curing problem to either the poly itself, or it's interaction with the sealer :icon_thum
