How to fix this?

Hi, How would I fix this burn mark on the wooden countertop. As you can see it’s not raw wood, it has been sealed by the manufacturer (some sort of poly is my guess). Do I have to sand down the entire countertop and then reapply another sealer?

I have a gorgeous piece of rainbow Poplar currently smoothing it down for a table top. It really sucks. I can’t put a finish on. That won’t keep these really cool colors.

Like I said, I’m building a table top so far me and my Stanley 4 1/2 are keeping busy. I was thinking about using a UV spar varnish as a surface. Would that be OK?

Did I Learn a Valuable Lesson On My First Project?

I grabbed what appeared to be matching pieces of wood at Lowe’s marked “white wood”. After staining, the top and bottom shelves look different enough in color to stand out. I used the same stain and process for both pieces (actually did 3 coats on top vs 2 on bottom to try and even up a bit). Does anyone with an eye for this kind of thing have any thoughts? Could they be different species of tree that still fall under “white wood”?
