I need to apply some new finish over a light oak finish on an old desk. My favorite choice is some old oil based polyurethane (varathane) I already have. Unfortunately, I don't know what the origional finish was. I sanded the old finish to remove the problem spots, and would like to just coat it with my poly. Is it likely that the origional finish will cause problems with the oil based urethane?
