Frugal use of cheese cloth

08-06-2006, 10:34 AM

I learned this from an elderly gentleman that used to be a wood finisher in a church furniture factory here in town. He used cheese cloth to apply and remove stain from the wood. He would then unfold the cheese cloth and hang it up to dry. When dry it was hard and crusty, it was just abrasive enough for rubbing down the wood he had just stained, it will not scratch the wood and works great for buffing the wood before you apply a finish. Can be used over and over. Mick P-20

I've been using the bags from Amazon and a heat gun my wife bought when she was a preschool teacher. Unless you are wrapping of small parts, you don't need a sealer. Just fold it over and hold it with a small piece of scotch tape on the back. After you shrink it it's sealed enough to keep everything...

My process is a bit different. Since I am using heat shrink bags when you seal the open end you trap a lot of air in them. When you start to heat the bag to shrink it you create a large bubble. I continue to heat the bag until it does pop a hole. I have been doing this for years. The shrink wrap...

None Linda. You need to find the right heat temp so it shrinks but doesn’t put a hole in the wrap but the tape doesn’t shrink or tear.
