I'm a little late for this thread...but I have two sections of my cabin sole in
the kitchen with wet polyurethane . My cabin sole wasn't too bad for 35 years
of service but had a few dings and scratches... an is a good winter project.
I'm using Minwax fast drying Polyuruthane matte finish. 4 hour drying time
means 3 coats per day. I gave it a fair sanding with 120 followed by 220 being
careful not to get to bare wood. I did this a few years ago....it looks great,
but , was pretty slippery....rugs would not stay in place and when healing
under sail stuff slid all over.This time I have added crushed walnut shells to
the last coat of Polyuruthane as a non skid. I did find one interesting post
that said to use 3/4" masking tape over the holly so as not to have brown
specks showing up. Getting the right ratio of walnut to Polyuruthane took some
testing....I found that 1.5 teaspoons walnut to 4 oz. Polyuruthane seemed to
work. The final problem is how to keep the crushed walnuts suspended long
enough to get enough on the brush. We'll see...Spencer Johnson 84 LF38
