French Polish Definition and Composition
French Polish is a type of wood finish that creates a very high-gloss surface.
It is primarily known for its characteristic smooth, lustrous appearance.
Key Components
- Shellac: A natural resin derived from the lac insect.
- Alcohol: Typically denatured ethanol (methylated spirits) is used as the solvent.
The process involves dissolving shellac flakes in alcohol to create a liquid finish, which is then applied to the wood in multiple thin layers using a pad.
The result is a durable, transparent coating.
