About This Book

A practical manual that teaches techniques for preparing and improving furniture woods, producing stains and imitations of costly timbers, and applying French polish and enamels. It explains tools, materials, shop procedure, and step-by-step methods for filling, applying, spiriting-off, glazing, and spirit varnishing, with guidance for re-polishing and finishing. The book collects numerous recipes for polishes, varnishes, fillers and revivers, describes American variations of the trade, and concludes with a reference list of materials and troubleshooting tips for both amateurs and professional finishers.
