Finishing Techniques

This class will give every student a thorough understanding of the finishing process. It will cover all aspects of wood finishing: proper sanding techniques, coloring wood (dyes, stains, chemical, and plant dyes), color-matching, membrane finishes (shellac, varnish, lacquer), and understanding solvents and their use in the finishing process. We will also explore hand-rubbed finishes, shading and toning, making your own custom stains and finishes and stripping/refinishing furniture and cabinetry. A discussion of modern spray equipment and their uses will also be covered.
