Friction Polish is a shellac based polish ideal for creating a high gloss finish on or off the lathe. It’s a great decorative finish and is ideal for small items. Friction Polish remains one of the most popular finishes for turners. It can be applied to bare wood but is normally used over a sealer. Applied with the lathe running, it dries almost instantly and builds to a deep, rich shine very quickly. Avoid using too much as this can cause ‘rings’ to appear on the surface. Friction Polish can be applied off the lathe with great success, using it like a French Polish and rubbing it into the surface. https://www.surreytimbers.co.uk https://chestnutproducts.co.uk
