I may be seeking the impossible, but here it goes . . .
I’m making a wagon for my son that will have picket sides made of stained/dyed white oak and brass. The joinery will make pre-finishing the oak & brass separately difficult/impossible and given the irregular shape, something sprayable would be my preference.
Any ideas? I was thinking of a spar varnish but I would worry about adhesion/flaking on the brass, although it will probably have a sanded (not polished) surface and wouldn’t experience too much handling.
Oh, and as a wagon, a finish that is good for outdoors and/or easy to refresh is a plus (although not mandatory - as is probably clear, this is a bit of a fancy wagon so it will probably get “garaged” indoors most of the time)
Thanks in advance,
EM
