It makes sense then, that these excellent finishes are available to buy from The Turner's Workshop. All Chestnut finishes are supplied in 500ml cans unless otherwise stated. Hard Wax Oil - £9.50 A new product from Chestnut which combines natural oils and waxes to leave a very hard wearing clear gloss finish. This is my personal favourite oil finish. Finish with 1 or 2 coats to give a satin sheen or 4 or 5 coats for a more glossy look. Easy to apply, just wipe on and off again with a paper towel. Finishing Oil - £8.00 This excellent Oil is a popular choice. The Oil soaks into the wood, feeding, nourishing and protecting the timber from inside and because it is not a surface finish, it can't be scratched or chipped like a varnish. I use 3 or 4 coats and finish with WoodWax 22 to get a beautiful rich glow. All applied with a NyWeb Pad to work the finishes into the wood and gently smooth the surface. Lemon Oil - £9.00 Lemon oil is made with Lemon grass oil, giving it it's distinctive citrus aroma. Like the Finishing oil (above) it offers a water resistant finish and has all of the advantages of an oil finish. Unlike the Finishing oil, Lemon oil offers a matt finish to your work. Food Safe Finish - £8.00 Used on all items designed to come into contact with food such as Chopping Boards and Spatulas. 2 or 3 coats liberally applied and wiped of with a clean cloth leaves a protective, satin finish for your Kitchenware. WoodWax 22 (Clear) - £7.00 Best applied with a NyWeb Pad, (I keep a small piece in the tin at all times) and is the perfect finishing touch to Finishing Oil or Melamine Lacquer. Supplied in a 450ml Tin. Microcrysalline Wax - £9.00 Another brand new finish from Chestnut. This is a new paste wax which uses a Microcrystalline formula to achieve a hard wearing and water repellent finish. Because of the higher melting point of this type of wax, it is ideal for items that will be handled a lot. Supplied in a 225ml tin, a little goes a long way! Melamine Lacquer - £9.00 The best finish to achieve a quick and easy but hard wearing gloss finish on small items such as Fruit and Pens. I use thinned slightly with Cellulose Thinners and applied with a piece of paper towel. I use 2 coats, rubbed down in-between with a NyWeb Pad and finished with WoodWax 22 or Microcrystalline Wax, again applied with a NyWeb Pad. Cellulose Sanding Sealer - £8.50 A great base for sealing timber before applying finishes such as Lacquer or Paint. Can also be used as a finish in its own right or with Wax, leaving a slightly more Matt surface than Melamine Lacquer. Best applied as for Melamine Lacquer. Cellulose Thinners - £6.00 Used to thin Melamine Lacquer and Sanding Sealer. (I find up to 30% thinners is best) A pure Cellulose product without any recycled materials or harmful petroleum solvents such as Toluene or Xylene. Ebonising Lacquer - £6.00 A simple to use Aerosol Lacquer which gives a beautiful Black finish for feature areas on turned items such as Bowls. Quick drying Acrylic based Lacquer is hard wearing and suitable for most timbers. Can be used on its own or in conjunction with an Acrylic Lacquer (400ml Aerosol) Acrylic Lacquer - Satin or Gloss - £6.00 These increasingly popular aerosol lacquer finishes are easy to apply, quick drying and hard wearing. (400ml Aerosol) Spirit Stains and Dyes - £12.50 These 25ml trial packs of Chestnut Spirit Wood dyes or Chestnut Spirit "Rainbow Colours" are a great way to get into the world of colouring your work. Can be used on their own as a wash, mixed to make new colours or to tint other cellulose based finishes. NyWeb Pads - £1.10 each or £10.50 for 10 A very fine abrasive pad and an excellent (and safer) alternative to 0000 Steel Wool. Excellent for applying Oils and Waxes. Very flexible and can be easily cut down, washed out and re-used. ~~~~~~ Abrasive, I use and recommend the Rhyno-Grip Plusline abrasive Velcro Backed Aluminium Oxide Abrasive Anti-Clog Lubrication Excellent Flexibility (the image to the right shows the flexibility of the 80 grit!) Fast, Efficient and Cool Sanding 80, 120, 180, 240, 320 & 400 grits in stock Available in: Mixed Abrasive Packs - £7.00 Includes 1/2m of each grit - 80, 120, 180, 240, 320, 400 1m Rolls - £2.50 per metre 5m Rolls - £11 (£2.20 per metre) 10m Rolls - £20 (£2 per metre) 2" Sanding Discs - Each - 19p 10 - £1.80 25 - £4.25 Sanding discs are available in all grits, 80 to 400 kept in stock NyWeb Pads - £1.10 each or £10.50 for 10 Red - 600 grit Yellow - 1000 grit To take your work to a finer finish use these Nyweb woven abrasive pads. Easy to cut up to suit the job in hand and very flexible. Also great for applying oil and wax finishes and cutting back. ~~~~~~ "Hope" Sanding Arbors, These professional quality sanding arbors have been designed to work with any velcro backed abrasive such as the Rhyno-Grip Plusline and feature a medium density foam pad and replaceable softer pad, included in the price! They are fitted with a Stainless Steel shaft designed to fit all drills and drill-driver tools. Designed by a turner for turners, they are meant to stand up to the every day treatment of a bowl turner. A unique feature of these pads is that they are made slightly undersize so the abrasive overlaps and protects the edges of the pad. 2" Power Sanding Arbors - £8.50 3" Power Sanding Arbors - £11.50 Soft Interface Pads 2" - £2.50 Soft Interface Pads 3" - £3.50 The "Hope" sanding arbors come with a replaceable pad as standard but when they become worn you can easily and cheaply replace this pad without buying a whole new arbor ~~~~~~ Postage & Packing Charges - UK Mainland only P&P will be charged based on order values shown below: Order Value up to £15 Postage £3 Order Value £15.01 - £25 Postage £5 Order Value £25.01 - £99.99 Postage £10 Orders over £100 are sent carriage free For example: 1x Finishing Oil @ £8.00 1x Woodwax 22 @ £7.00 Postage & Packing = £3 Total Order Value £18.00
