I painted a table and put a java brown wipe-off glaze to give it an old color. It looked great. So I go to spray it with poly acrylic to protect and follow the directions to sand with 220 grit lightly....grrrrr.....it started removing my glaze and leaving scratch marks. So I wiped with tack cloth, waited the appropriate time and then sprayed another coat. The scratches in the glaze still show. I am so upset -- to get this far into a project, follow the directions and then have the project messed up. Next time I will use wax.
Matte. Not gloss
I did and wiped down completely before applying polyacrylic. I did not use spray but brushed on.
