Hi there.
I have recently varnished a worktop using Walnut.
The finish is not desirable as it has gone more of a Mahogany / Chestnut dark red.
I have stained all the other woodwork in the same room wiaht a walnut stain and that is the perfect brown that I wanted.
So sanding back down is not an option as it will make so much mess and probaby bever rub up properly.
So question is can I realistically do anything to lighten the varnish up and then re apply another colour?
Thanks,
Alex.
