I’ve got a beauty slab slated to be a trestle coffee table. I’m trying to figure out the best finish to maximize beauty and provide the necessary durability. I’m pretty well versed with finishing. I’ve padded and sprayed shellac, sprayed lacquer, padded on arm r seal, and used a pile of oil and oil/wax finishes. In all honestly I’m leaning toward spraying emtech 6000, just because it’s so much easier, but I’m worried it’ll come out a little cold. My general approach to figured walnut is danish oil, blond shellac and sometimes a topcoat of lacquer for durability, but on this project it would be an awful long regimen.
I thought maybe I’d put it out to the collective conscience and get an idea moving forward. Slab and base pics attached. Thanks is advance ladies and gents.
