Introduction to hand applied finishes
covering oils, waxes and shellac
This course introduces you to the use of waxes, oils and shellac finishes, including when to use each type of finish, and how to apply them for the best results including initial surface preparation. You will also be introduced to the technique of French Polishing.
You will come away from the day with some samples of each finish type along with a French Polishing 'rubber' and a jar of shellac which you will have prepared yourself.
You’re also welcome to bring along a project you wish to finish/refinish.
This course costs £180 (or £165 with Double Up!), which includes a light lunch at either the onsite cafe or local pub and all materials required.
This course is eligible for our ‘Double Up!’ option. At checkout, choose whether you would prefer to attend this course alone, or that you are happy to double up with another person. It can be arranged for a date that suits both parties.
