Hello everyone,
I'm new to the group and to pen turning, but have been woodturning on and off for approximately 15 years now. I've been reading several threads on the finishing forum and have one question (I'm sure they'll be more to come).
I purchased a bottle of Friction Polish from CSUSA a while back, and after reading a few particular threads I'm starting to wonder what it is I bought. Maybe I misread, but I'm now under the impression that there are two types of friction polish. One lacquer based and the other shellac based? The bottle I have simple reads "Craft Supplies..." on it, and the website doesn't specify what it is, how to use it, nor it's drying time. I tried e-mailing CSUSA customer service, but without response.
Does anyone know what this is? I assume it's shellac based and is applied similarly to brand name products. Here's a link to it: http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/cgi-bin/shopper?search=action&keywords=mylands-friction-polish
Any help will be appreciated,
P.S. GREAT SITE!!!
