Hello everyone. I am new to this website and relatively new to woodworking. I just completed my first project and had a gas building it.....yes i did make a mistake or two but in the end it worked out. The piece i built is a night table made from Cherry. I plan of finishing it with minwas wipe on poly. I sanded this night stand with 80 then 150 and then 220 grit sandpaper about a month ago. My question is do i have to go through this same series of sanding grits or can i just go over it one more time with 220...before applying the wipe on. Any help you can provide would be great. Thanks. | ||

You should be ok to put the poly on after the 220. Some people go higher grit but I don't find that necessary. When wiping on poly I always sand with 400 grit in between coats to knock the dust nibs off and level to some degree. Usually 3 coats comes out looking nice and smooth. | ||
