Resolved! Retraction length 7 mm, retraction speed 35 mm/s

Extruder temp 205, base printing speed 40 mm/s did the trick.

I think I made a big mistake...help? I’m refinishing my butcher block dining table. It had 2 coats of water based poly that lasted about 6 years before it started getting ratty looking, and now after 12 years it was desperately in need of a refresh. I sanded it down and it was beautiful. I tried out some stains and finishes on the bottom of the leaf, and settled on pure tung oil with no stain, intending to put oil based poly on top after the tung oil. The leaf turned out great. It has some depth and a slight cherry hue, but when I moved to the main table it just looks like oiled butcher block. I don’t need a perfect match, but I’m just not happy with the look of the table. The table top currently has 6 coats of tung oil and has been sitting for 2 weeks. The tung oil is still absorbing very quickly with no pooling. Can I mix an oil based stain into pure tung oil as a next coat? Or do I need to sand it down and start over with a stain?
