Chestnut Products Friction Polish
Chestnut Products Friction Polish
Chestnut Products Friction Polish produces a high gloss finish ideal for polishing small items on lathe work although it can be applied off the lathe. It has a heavy concentration of shellac which gives a very high build, therefore it is not essential to apply a sealer before application, although a coat of Cellulose Sanding Sealer or Acrylic Sanding Sealer may be applied first if you prefer.
It can be used on bare wood or over any of the Chestnut Products’ Sanding Sealers. The final finish can be treated with Burnishing Cream for an even higher gloss. Waxes can also be applied over Friction Polish.
- When applied with work revolving on the lathe the polish dries immediately
- Can be used on bare wood
- Ideal for small projects on the lathe
Tips
Apply a thin coat and keep the cloth moving. For an incredible finish try applying Friction Polish over a burnished coat of Melamine Lacquer then use Burnishing Cream on top.
Safety Considerations
Highly Flammable. Use Safety Cloth when working on the lathe. (see Safety Data Sheet or warnings on can for full details).
