Can I gloss over Epifane matte varnish

[John Teale]

Hi all.

I have been varnishing the inside of my Fisher 25 and put 4 coats of Epifane gloss and then 1 coat of Epifane matte.

However I loved the finish after the 4 gloss coats and wish I never put the matte coat on top.

does anyone know if I can simply put another coat of gloss on top of the matte to get a nice shiny finish again.

Thanks

John

Yes you can lightly sand with 600 wet dry .I have just done it on a table as the owner wanted gloss after we had just put nice matt on it!

Thanks cindy.

Did it get a nice shine after only one coat of the gloss?

Nice shine but better with two thinned coats.

Problem was the first time the Eber was on and it blew more dust around.Dooh.
