    Question about applying sanding sealer?

    Just wondering when and really how do I need to apply sanding sealer. I am going to try and turn some Spalted Red Oak. With being the open grain ScottM suggested getting some sanding sealer. So I got this from Woodcraft. It doesn't really give much direction as how to apply. It says apply...

    Hi, Am just in the process of final assembly of Queen Size 'Craftsman/Mission' style bed and I applied two wash coats of shellac as a sealer. As an afterthought, I thought I might use an oil mixture: 1/3 oil 1/3varnish 1/3mineral spirits. My question is, will this finishing technique sit and...

    shellac sealer versus top coat

    I have used dewaxed shellac for years, mostly as a sealer but also as a top coat sometimes. Recently I was convinced (feel free to offer debate on the point) that for top coats the natural waxy shellac is better and for items that I am trying to finish "traditionally", it is more correct. So I...

    hard sealer

    I have heard this term before in the reference of finishing wood but I'm not sure what it means. I have mostly just stained a piece, let it dry for a few days, and then cover with Polyurethane. Am I missing a step that I should consider? I am looking for enlightenment:dontknow:

    Wood sealer

    Does any one use parraffin wax for sealing their wood? Is it better than, as good as or not as good as anchor seal? How do they compare in price? What are the pros and cons of each? Thanks for any comments or suggestions. Bear

    Sanding Sealer

    I have built some small wine racks - 1 each from pecan, walnut, and cedar. These woods are so different, I am wondering if I should use a sanding sealer on them to get a consistent finish with satin polyurethane. I have used the satin poly wipe on a couple of pecan wine racks before, sanding...

    Pre - Stain Sealer & Newspaper

    Today in the shop I was perparing to stain a small pine spice cabnet. I always use a pre - stain conditioner when staining pine to prevent the blotching (uneven penetration) that occurs when working with soft pine. I'm rather messy, so to protect my bench top I first put down a sheet of...
