Default Re: French polishing for beginners.

Hi,

Thanks Ben I'll let you know; I've just bought a tub of Manista and it looks promising; it also smells nice.

A splendid job Dom and what a transformation. I'm so pleased you are the first to show your success with scraping and french polishing as I know how much effort and determination you've put in on this cabinet over the last few weeks and its a credit to you. I agree about the deep sense of satisfaction experienced after completing a cabinet this way; I feel it every time making me want to do another. It's been a pleasure to help you.

The coat of raw linseed oil has really brought the wonderful colour out and I'd like to see a picture of the completed set. Regards, Col.
