Having problems with my varnish...

[AntonK]

Hey everybody,

 

A few weeks back I started on my first modelship (The Candelaria from Occre). I have done all the flooring and everything is going well until yesterday... After doing that, the next step was to varnish the flooring. For that I used the Oak Varnish from Occre itself, but I didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to... It’s a mix between good pieces and white stains (I think from the glue, even though I sanded the whole deck before).

 

I have put a picture to show you guys, so you guys can see. If any of you have tips to restore it or have advise to help this issue, it would be very much appreciated.

 

Kind regards,

Anton

Welcome to MSW AntonK,

When CA glue is used, it soaks into the wood and become almost impossible to remove, even with heavy sanding.

I moved this to the appropriate area here on MSW.

What Keith said. If you didn't use CA, you may be able to sand down far enough to get to bare wood and give it another try. Otherwise, you'll have to do the deck over again, taking care to avoid any glue on the face of the planks.

Personally, I don’t like the seasick green (polite term) color that you wound up with.  I’d use paint stripper scraped down with a single edged razor blade.  I’d test out your new stain on some scrap first.
