: I made my first GP using Brian Nystrom's excellent book. I was
: wondering if I could add the 50/50 mixture of tung oil and
: varnish that is described in the book over an already cured tung
: oil surface? Thanks alot.

Brian's on the forum, I think he should answer this. Not sure why you'd want to do this, adding more tung oil is really pretty simple, scrub the surface with 0000 steel wool and add more oil.
