Semi gloss finish question

[wolfden]

I am putting the finishing touches on a dining table for a friend. She wants a semi gloss finish. I have used a 3-2-1 mixture of mineral spirits, semi gloss polyeurathane and boiled linseed oil. I am not getting the gloss I was expecting. I have applied 3 coats so far. Is there something that will help?

Thanks in advance!

Let that finish dry for at least a week then use a coat of poly without the extra oil.

+1. Make your final coat the semi-gloss Poly mixed 1:1 w/ mineral spirits. No oil.
