Nothing completes a woodworking project like a beautiful, durable finish. In this DVD video, expert cabinetmaker
Frank Klausz shows you how to choose the right finish and how to apply it to your latest and greatest project
with beautiful results!

Simple tools and the correct techniques are all it takes to produce flawless finishes by hand. This DVD combines two videos: Hand-Applied Finishes: Coloring Wood and Hand Applied Finishes: Applying Topcoats to offer a complete video guide to these time-tested techniques. You'll learn about:

• Preparing surfaces
• Using pore fillers
• Mixing stains
• Brushing on varnish
• Using pad lacquer and shellac
• Applying French polish
• Rubbing out a finish

In this DVD, finishing expert Michael Dresdner shows you what you need to know to become a proficient wood finisher, starting with classic surface-prep problems and their solutions -- how to recognize and remove dents, how to recognize and fill gouges, how to pre-raise wood grain to get the best results under waterborne finishes, and, most important, how to sand wood.

You'll learn how to apply a simple wax finish, shellac-and-wax, and a polyurethane with only a rag for a tool. It's a simple process: rag on your finish, wipe it off, let it dry, recoat. You've got to see this to learn how little you have to do to get a classy, silky, surface that's ideal for most indoor furniture.

Next, Dresdner visits wood finishing expert Chris Minick, who teaches you how to brush on a flawless polyurethane varnish finish.

Finally, Dresdner explains the simple principles of spray finishing and guides you through the potentially confusing landscape of modern spraying tools. You'll find out how to set up each type of spray equipment, how to adjust spray patterns, and how to apply all the major coatings to a variety of furniture types -- a chair, a tabletop, a bookcase -- and to a guitar.

The old way of finishing the top side immediately after bottom is to flip the project and set it on a large board studded with nails.
