  This indispensable guide to the finest wood finishing techniques has been revised and is now better than ever, with colour photographs, further illustrations to show additional stains and an expanded text. Both newcomers and skilled woodworkers will discover a wealth of enlightening material, leading those who have never before applied a finish through the entire process, from wood preparation right to the last coat. Experienced finishers eager to broaden their creative horizons are offered traditional techniques - including French polishing, wood graining and chemical staining - which have been largely forgotten during the past few years, although their effects are hard to duplicate by any other means.
