As a professional furniture maker and finisher, I want to work with the best
finishing products available. My enthusiasm for these materials has led me to
stock and sell them to decorative artists, woodworkers and professionals who
make fine furniture, restore antiques, or work with fine interior cabinetry and flooring. The product list contains:
- Shellacs
- Waxes
- Stains
- Varnishes
- Oils
|
- Decorative Paints
- Specialty Abrasives
- Polish Cloths
- Brushes and
- Touch up Supplies
|
I rely daily on the performance of these products. If your experience is like
mine, you know that the real cost of finishing is not just the material expense.
It includes your time for preparation, application, and clean up. Minimal
solvent use, safety, and conservation of materials also affect productivity and
cost. Special brushes and polish cloths make jobs go faster.
Please download my complete Product List in .pdf format (it's a 20k file, a quick download even on a dial-up connection). If you need it, you can download the free Adobe reader software from the Adobe website.
