Finishing Wood, Paperback / softback Book

Finishing Wood Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A great finish can make even a simple project look terrific.

A bad finish can ruin the most well-built, sophisticated piece of furniture.

Finishing can be a daunting and mystifying task to many woodworkers and DIYers who fear wrecking their projects at this late stage in the process.

This collection of articles from Fine Woodworking brings together the best infromation on a rich variety of finishing techniques. Nowadays, finishing wood doesn't just embrace fine clear finishes like shellac and French polishing, but also bright pigmented lacquers, dyes and stains, milk paint, and "crackled" paint.

Finishing Wood features a whole section on the hot new trend of coloring wood.

Also included is timeless information on preparing a surface before you apply a finish (a critical first step) as well as tried-and-true methods for applying all the traditional finishes, whether by brush or by spraying. AUTHOR: Fine Woodworking has been publishing the best woodworking information for small shop woodworkers since 1975.
