avoid objects sticking to finish
I want to make a small wooden box to hold index cards, but am
concerned that high humidity might result in cards sticking to the finish. How can this be avoided, other than by lining the box with velvet or some such ? Finish is undecided, wood probably will be oak. Thanks, David |

Thanks, David If you use an oil based paint or varnish you should have no problem with cards sticking. You do not need humidity for cards to stick to latex/water based enamel paints. If you are l9ooking for a clear finish I would recomend any one of the gel wipe on varnishes. |

Thanks, David Like drawer interiors, you can leave it unfinished. *I find a spray can of lacquer works very well for small projects--fast and easy to apply, cures quickly. * A second choice would be polyurethane, one of the toughest fiishes. |
