I have a quart of rock hard tabletop varnish. It's suggested to be thinned with
a proprietary reducer only. Would it mix with tung and linseed to make a rub on
build up type finish? I could linseed, shellac and then topcoat with the rock
hard and rub it out but my concern is a misfit and cracking. It's going on
curly maple, aniline dyed.
Thanks much

For years now, I've mixed Behlen's Rock Hard Tabletop Varnish with
hardware store mineral spirits, naptha, linseed oil and 100% tung oil -
generally not all at the same time. No problems whatsoever.
