I apply all kinds of finishes and they are all different. For example, I u=

IMO, if you are talking about bar top finish instead of a urethane epoxy fi=

Other than re the question you ask, show us a pic of your table. We like to view folks' good work, as well.

depends on the product
depends on how thick the coats are and how thick you want the final
finish to be
two ways to go but first a question
how solid is the marriage
if you answer it is solid then
tell her the uneven surface is to give the table character
if you answer no and making the finish thick is ok
you could place the table perfectly level and build a tape wall
around the edge and pour a final coat of epoxy
vids and info online
look for bar tops
if the finish cannot be thick then work on making the marriage solid
maybe a new vase with flowers on the new table

Yes. However, before sanding/recoating, wash it well to remove any amine
blush. You could also sand and polish rather than pour more.
