polyester finish
 

Hi all,

I got a demand to finish furniture with polyester.
To have a better idea about the finish here is link of a picture of a
chair with the required finish:

the only thing I know is that this is an ordinary wood chair covered
with...
glass reinforced polyester with silk screen flower pattern...

I've little or no experience with polyester finishing, so I'm looking
for some place to start, book, web or other basic info that might get
me on track.

All info is greatly appreciated

Jill

Jill:

We've a shop in my area that does nothing but finishing. When I've had to
have polyester for a customer, I did the work and sent the pieces to the
finishing shop, and they came back perfect. I thought this made better
sense for my shop, rather than wrestling with a difficult & dangerous
technique that I might well not use again. This turned out to be more
profitable for me.

So I guess my advice is to sub out the finishing Hope that isn't too
incredibly useless.
