CA Finish on a Dyed Bowl
Mar 5^th, 2017 at 4:35pm

A few days ago I posted on FB an ion progress photo of three dyed pieces that I was working on. One of my friends asked if I would create a video of my CA finishing process. So, I thought I would give it a try. I have posted the picture of the three turnings and also a picture of the one piece once I finished putting on the CA. This is a piece of quilted maple that I dyed black, sanded back and then dyed red. It has a CA finish on it. I will be putting a gold leaf finish on the inside of the bowl. The bowl measures 10"W x 2 1/2"H. I was asked by one of my FB friends to post a video of how I do the CA finish. So, if interested you can find it on Youtube at Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!! You need to

. Thanks for looking

It's always good to see how someone else "skins the cat."

The final product, if you will, looks great. A very deep high gloss finish was achieved. My question is why did you choose to use CA.? I don't/won't dye wood so maybe there's something in that I don't understand. I suppose I would have gone for a lacquer to get the same/similar results. Just curious.

I either get it too heavy and uneven or too thin and orange peel like. The other thing is CA will hold up better to buffing than does lacquer. So, I go with what I'm "good" at
