L'Erario, one half of the TLC channel's "The Furniture
Guys" spins his own advice teaching woodworkers to
learn to restore, revive or remove and apply new finishes
to the their tired and worn furniture.
Go on an educational (and frequently amusing) tour of
the world of finishing. Learn why shellac, lacquer and
varnish are great (in most cases), and why oil finishes
and water-base finishes are suspect (despite everything
you read in woodworking magazines and books). Many of
these methods will shock you, some will make you laugh
(like the one that uses hamster bedding) but all of them
will be useful in your workshop. Once you understand the
basics, L’Erario gets down to business by finishing
two projects that demonstrate many of the lessons in the
book.
