Wood Finishing Basics - DVD
Surface prep, wipe-on and spray finishing, and a visit with a finishing expert
In this DVD, finishing expert Michael Dresdner shows you what you need to know to become a proficient wood finisher, starting with classic surface-prep problems and their solutions -- how to recognize and remove dents, how to recognize and fill gouges, how to pre-raise wood grain to get the best results under waterborne finishes, and, most important, how to sand wood.
You'll learn how to apply a simple wax finish, shellac-and-wax, and a polyurethane with only a rag for a tool. It's a simple process: rag on your finish, wipe it off, let it dry, recoat. You’ve got to see this to learn how little you have to do to get a classy, silky, surface that’s ideal for most indoor furniture.
