So, I’ve read every article I can find and have watched every video I can find on French polishing. I’ve also practiced on multiple boards. In general, my skills have GREATLY improved. There is one issue where I’m still having trouble with though.
I can’t seem to get the streaks out of my last application. Every time I try to rub out the finish, I’m left with very faint marks from the rubber. It really only shows up in the parts of the wood dyed black. This a seems to happen when I apply light shellac or when the rubber is only charged with alcohol.
Thanks for your help,,
Tom
