Reply to Question for RolfI use plastic mixing containers with a lid. The alcohol mixture absorbs water and will cause the can to rust out over time. I pour the mix into a plastic food tray, like what you get with chinese food. Dip my pieces and then shake off the excess by tapping it on a piece of cardboard. Hang to dry. It...01-05-2020, 10:06 AM

Rolf,
A few years ago you told me about using Zinser seal coat and denatured alcohol. You said you mixed the two 50/50 and then dipped the project into this mixture.

I use the water base sealer from minwax. After it drys I sand to at least 150 grit and often to 220 grit. Wipe it with a tac cloth then apply the masking...12-13-2019, 07:27 PM

Reply to sanding sealer or shellacThe real nice thing about using shellac and alcohol mix for ornaments is you only have to wait minutes before you tie in your ribbons and packaging.12-13-2019, 09:48 AM -
Reply to sanding sealer or shellacI do the same as Rolf. I mix Shellac 50% with alcohol and use that as a sanding sealer.12-13-2019, 09:33 AM
