Between coats of varnish, let the first coat of varnish harden or dry, as recommended by the manufacturer. Some two-coat varnishes should be applied 10 to 15 hours from the time the first coat was applied, but in general it's best to wait at least 24 hours -- longer, if possible.
The first coat (use gloss varnish for the best clarity) is thinned about 2 - 1 (two parts solvent, usually mineral spirits, to one part varnish). This solution is brushed onto the clean and dry wood with a brush, allowed to penetrate for a minute or so, and the excess wiped off with clean cloths.
