I have a desk top that has a a very thin veneer of walnut and looking at finishes.
Was thinking of oil finish and then orange shelac over that. It sounds like it should highlight the grain.
Sound OK? Any other recomendations for good finish?
How mush shelac flakes do I need? How much does 100g of flakes cover?
Not used shelac before so an y advice....
Or would wiping vanish be better? I can buy some varnish and thin it down. then put many coats on.????
Can you put a wiping varnish over oil or shelac for better protection?
thanks for any advice
