OrangeReviewStarYour woodworking project isn't complete without a good finish. This smart book focuses on finishing details, materials, and techniques of finishing. Chapters include the basics of wood finishing, types of application, colored finishes, and troubleshooting. A special section on spray-on finishes includes equipment and technique. The advice is professional, in-depth, and nicely illustrated. Included are equipment and material evaluations. The tips and troubleshooting are spot-on and much more detailed than other titles on the subject, such as Bob Flexner's Wood Finishing 101.
VERDICT This book is a valuable manual for any woodworker, beginner or expert. Highly recommended.
