Shellac vs Tung Oil on Cherry

Описание: Ep303: In considering what finish to put on a beautiful Cherry carved settee bench, at first I thought I’d use shellac for its ease of application, but Tung Oil Wiping Varnish can also look great. And, it might be worth applying a stain first too…so many options, which is best? In this episode I explain it all in detail using sample boards to show options, and my process for testing finishes so I can move ahead with confidence on this valuable settee.
