    Take it back to the shop for an exchange Peter. You might have a bad bottle. I bought some based on recommendations on here & it comes out nice & shiny.

      Doesn't sound right Peter, take it back as Patrick advises.

        Yeah I would say it's a bad bottle. I've used it and get a nice gloss finish after about 2-3 coats.
