Get a good natural bristle brush, Purdy makes good ones. They are well worth the extra expense. You will get much better results. I can't emphasize enough how much better the results will be with a good brush! The finish will be much smoother! Sand the surface of the wood until it is smooth and brush away all the dust. Do not get the wood wet now.
Put on one thin coat. Allow it to dry. Lightly sand the surface. Apply another coat. You can put on another coat. Read the manufactorers instructions for drying times and optimal number of coats. Another thing, don't buy cheap brushes or finishes. I'm a real penny pincher, but I've found that I end up spending more money when I try to use cheaper products of this sort.
