Sorry for the cross-post, but got no replies in the turner's forum...I don't have a separate finishing area in my shop, and I will be doing the finish turning on about 100+ rough-turned bowls and platters over the next several weeks. I am going to be using several different finishes, as folks like variety - some WDO, some lacquer, some shellac only and some wax only.
It would be more efficient for me to complete the turning and finish sanding first before turning to applying finishes, but then many pieces might sit, already finish-sanded, for several weeks before I got around to the various finish treatments. Do I need have concern about leaving pieces like this for weeks? Problems with oxidation on surface? End grain popping or receding? Thanks in advance....
