FINISHING TIps

■ Raw linseed oil will not dry properly. Make sure to use the boiled product.

■ The cut in shellac is the amount of shellac flakes, in weight, that is dissolved into a gallon of denatured alcohol.

■ If you elect to brush the shellac, use a good brush. The better the brush, the better the results.
