by Derrick Crump (Author), Ronnie Rustin (Consultant) (Author)

Synopsis

This guide to decorating and protecting wood covers a wide range of finishes including: staining, bleaching, french polishing, varnishing, waxing, marbling and liming. Each technique is accompanied by comprehensive step-by-step colour photographs, an easy-to-follow tools and materials panel, a what can go wrong box, useful hints and tips, and cross references to where other relevant information can be found in the book. In addition to the traditional methods of finishing, the book includes a section on spraying - how to set up a spraying workshop and booth, which are the best spray guns, and how they can be used to imitate traditional finishes or create new special effects. A troubleshooting section explains what can go wrong with finishes and how these problems can be solved.
