I asked this a couple of days ago, but I don't ...

I asked this a couple of days ago, but I don't think it got posted.  When refinishing solid rock maple furniture I usually don't stain it because it will always return to its natural color on it own.  My question is how do  you keep the polyurethane coating from being streaky or showing brush marks or looking uneven.   I have never been able to get a nice smooth look with a brush.

Use a wipe on polly. It's the best thing since sliced bread.
