Finish suggestions
"Ba r r y" wrote in message news I need finish suggestions for a useful project I completed today. Should I allow it to build a patina with use, or stain and age it from the get go? I don't want to mess it up, as the project was completed entirely with hand tools on locally grown wood. They don't just hand these things out at paint stores! http://www.bburke.com/wood/project.jpg Nice work! Did you make it from plans? The wrong finish can diminish the value also. I'd go natural and let it build a patina. Anything else is too risky IMO. |
