My husband is refinishing our hardwood floor; applied second coat of polyurethane and bubbles have begun to form- does he have to start over? PLEASE HELP!

throwaway in hopes my husband will use this to become a redditor! : )

My husband has been busting his ass refinishing the hardwood floors in our office. He wants to do the entire house, but is testing it out just in one room right now.

It looked phenomenal. He sanded it down to the bare wood, stained it etc (I don't know the exact steps) - all was going well until last night when he was applying the second coat of polyurethane.

It started going downhill last night when he felt the need to rush. He was sweating buckets...which landed on the floor. He stopped halfway through and tried to finish the second coat this morning.

Now- bubble marks have formed.

He read that he has to completely start over. Re-sand down to the bare wood. He is so upset.

He's not a redditor (but I am) so I thought I'd post here to ask for advice.

Is there anything else he can do to avoid starting over? The coat isn't completely dry.

I'm going to snap some pics and edit this to add them.

tldr; husband refinishing hardwood floors, bubbles began to form while applying second coat of polyurethane....does the mean he has to complete start over and sand down to bare wood?

edit for spelling
