[Closed] Can you gloss over satinwood?

Please say yes.

Painted large amount of skirting/frame/windowledges in satinwood and now learned that it's actually a bit pants and scratches easily. (3 coats applied).

I [i]really[/i] don't want to sand it all back again; can I get away with just keying it up a bit and glossing over?

Normal Dulux satinwood, if that makes any difference.

Ta.

We found it difficult where several coats of the satin had been used - it's so 'soft' that when we tried to get it keyed it kind of squidged in a few places. A real PITA.

On the up side, Mrs Nobby did most of it whilst I was out riding ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks; did it apply ok when eventually directly onto the satinwood?
