DIY woodworkers struggle with finishing coat compatibility and adhesion failures

DIY woodworkers and furniture refinishers face frustrating adhesion problems when applying water-based polyurethane over water-based wood stains, resulting in peeling, bubbling, and ruined projects. Current product instructions don't adequately address compatibility between different water-based products, leaving users to troubleshoot through trial-and-error. This causes wasted materials, time, and abandoned projects that don't meet expectations.
