Material: Varnish

I've nearly finished my Guillemot and have just started varnishing, problem is the varnish will not dry no matter what I do!

I thought I would use a top quality brand, so I spent a small fortune buying "Epifanes", top knotch stuff.

Problem is it won't dry, it's been on the deck now for 72 hours and it's still very tacky, the workshop is heated to 14c, Iv'e even got a fan running to aid ventilation.

I assume it's to do with it's inability to soak into the resin.

Anyone got any idea what I can try next.

It IS drying--in the way varnish dries
Varnish doesn't "dry", it "cures"
