Working with Wood

There could be a number of reasons why you want to give wood some kind of finishing treatment. You may want to touch up an existing finish, seal new wood,  or you may want to strip off an existing finish and start again, perhaps to give the wood a different color.

But before you apply any varnish, wax, color, oil, or paint, it's essential to spend some time on preparation. You'll end up with a smoother, more effective, and more professional finish.
