About this Class
Do you have a dusty shop? Do you find that a compressor, spray gun, and spray booth are way too expensive and takes up too much room? Do you want the best and fastest kind of finish that makes the wood look beautiful and, at the same time, hesitate to spend a lot of money? Then this class is perfect for you. Patrick will demonstrate a simple solution to everyone’s finishing needs. Shellac, which has been a traditional finish for centuries, is easy to make, cost effective, and simple to apply. It is non-toxic, quick drying, available in different colors, and can be applied in a dusty shop with success. The different types of furniture paste wax will be discussed and the proper way to apply a wax coating will be demonstrated. Maintaining a shellac furniture polish over the years with annual paste wax produces the most beautiful and highly desired patina. Each student will receive four ounces of shellac and a high-quality squirrel hairbrush.
