by RolfI am making another batch of puzzles. Primary wood is maple. I used mostly Danish oil on the last 52 I made. I don't like the smell of it.
Betty suggested a 50/50 mix of mineral oil and thinner. It dried faster with minimal odor. Denny you mentioned you used shellac and alcohol 50/50.

Reply to What should I use?by will8989Thanks. Haven’t done anything yet in the way of finishing but I will keep that in mind. I think hubby has some. If so, I’ll see if it can end up over on my side.

Reply to What should I use?by dwilliamTo maintain the color of the green stripped poplar and the white maple, consider using a clear, water-based finish. Water-based finishes are less likely to add any color or yellowing to the wood, allowing the natural beauty and colors of the poplar and maple to shine through.

Reply to Painting advice on woodworkby RolfSounds like whoever did it took some shortcuts. I agree with Markdavd, you will need to get back down to a clean surface and start over. I also highly recommend following the manufacturers preparation directions.

Reply to Painting advice on woodworkby markdavdIn my experience, if the current coat isn't sticking and you simply paint or prime over top then the new layer will be subject to the same damage. This is because the bad layer is still between the new paint and the wood work. . The best thing to do is try and figure out why the paint didn't adhere...

Reply to Painting advice on woodworkby NC ScrollerMy initial thought is to sand with 150 or 180, changing sandpaper often and then apply kilz and then your topcoat.
