Wood in its natural form cannot be used as it is. It needs lots of cosmetic changes to it before it can be supplied to the market. South Shore Boston area wood finishing is one such change we recommend. The process of embellishing or protecting the surface of any wooden material means "Wood finishing."
Generally, a wood finishing project starts with the surface preparation, which is done by sanding by hand, scraping, or planing. Holes and Imperfections are filled with wood filler. The wood color is often changed by staining, bleaching, and a number of other such methods. Once the wooden surface is prepared and stained, several numbers of coats of finish are applied, often sanding between the coats.
The most common wood finishes include wax, shellac, tung oil or linseed oil, lacquer, varnish, or paint. Other finishes called Oil Finish are actually just thin varnishes with a relatively larger amount of oil and solvent. Very rarely water-based finishes are used because they cause " raising in the grain " wherein the surface fuzz emerges and requires sanding down. Finally, the surface may be polished or buffed using steel wool, pumice stone, or rottenstone. Other polishing and rubbing compounds are also used depending on the shine desired. Mostly, whatever way the polishing is done, a final coat of wax is applied over to add protection to the wooden item.
