5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Your Shop Library, Mar 19 2003
This review is from: Grt Wood Finishes (Paperback)
If you are reading these, you're probably like me - looking for a good finish book that's easy to read and follow and that has good pictures to help. Well this is the book! This is a great resource book on all aspects of finishing wood. Jeff covers everything from different ways to prepare the wood to the various ways to color wood, fill the pores, and finally to the application of the top finish. The book has hundreds of beautiful pictures which he uses in addition to the very descriptive verbal explainations of each process. I like the addition of the special "summary tips" on each subject and the highlighted "Pro and Con" list on each process.

In the last chapter he has a step by step outline of how the information covered in the previous chapters can be applied to a specific project. I don't think that you will regret purchasing this book. I use mine frequently. Hope this helps you make a decision.
Happy woodworking!
