Few homes are without one or more pieces of furniture that the owner would like to see refinished. However, the relatively high cost of commercial finishing or the natural hesitancy to tackle an unfamiliar job without guidance, usually condemns the pieces to remaining as-is or being discarded. This book provides answers to most finishing needs, from quick cover-ups to the finest traditional surfaces. Fast and serviceable finishes, fine finishes, and the more useful of the decorative finishes are presented.
