White Oak. Quarter/rift sawn. Minwax oil based stain. Dry to touch, and white t-shirt wipe is clean. Applied 2 coats of shellac. Then was using General Finish Endurovar water based top coat. Very light sand between coats with 220.
The grain keeps rising, mainly in the tight 'true' quartersawn areas using the GF product. I didn't notice it after the shellac, but after applying the water based top coat, it does it after every application. Can't figure out why.
Thoughts?
