<p>[QUOTE=&quot;808 raver, post: 9759270, member: 4654&quot;]No sealer required, French polish is a sealer, in a reasonably warm place the first coat of French polish will dry in a 5 minutes then it&#039;s sealed, all the coats after that will dry in 2 minutes or less because they are sitting on top of a already dry coat. The term &quot;French polishing&quot; really means going over a grain filled super flat surface with a rubber (fad) that puts a very thin coat on layer after layer (this dries in a few seconds) a few drops of oil is used to prevent it grabbing but you are not trying to &quot;French polish&quot; (although a good thing to learn) You are just giving a few coats of lacquer, keep the coats thin and when you are happy with the shine leave it at least 12hrs then with very fine wire wool (000) very lightly go over the whole box, all you are doing is removing the high gloss that French polish has, this is called antiquing, if you don&#039;t do this step it just looks wrong, too shiny. Then give it a wax polish. This youtuber is who I learnt from, please don&#039;t be put off by the poor video quality in 20 mins of video he covers all you need to know, lol he ended up making many TV appearances.&nbsp; </p><p>Part 1 [MEDIA=youtube]nOLdP752fMM[/MEDIA]</p><p>Part 2 [MEDIA=youtube]ezTjHkErjx4[/MEDIA][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
