[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 397308, member: 15636"] I coat all edges a minimum of 3X times. I also only seal edges when ambient temps are dropping. As wood warms up, air bubbles are released and you may see this in finished surfaces as an 'orange peel-like' effect. One can also slightly warm the wood (heat gun or hair dryer) and as it is cooling off - seal it, as that actually draws the finish deeper into the pores. FWIW this is an old wooden boat wood workers' trick~! [/QUOTE]
