They look beautiful. You did a wonderful job. The new color is perfect and in my opinion gives them a timeless look. I mean they will never look outdated but rather traditional.
Very impressive job, if I lived near you I'd be over to help out and hopefully pick up some polishing skills from you, I've always wanted to learn french polishing and it would be great to work with someone like you as an apprentice, in my case an apprentice that's almost the same age as you !, another great video, very enjoyable seeing the final product of your very skillful work, all the best from up here in Scotland.
Interesting video. I am about to finish my own DIY loudspeakers with a walnut veneer. Can you provide links to the products you used, and can you give some idea of the texture of the resultant finish? I.E can you feel the wood grain, or does it feel more like a lacquer? How might this finish compare to a commercially available hard wax oil like the one from Chestnut finishes?
Hello Ashley, this is a modern french polish, here's a link www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161842122904?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=SmW9mHFTQJi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=2K85FN0wTVW&var=460815821208&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Very nice, once again your the man, I hope you charged Elton for extra coats you didn't actually do. Did he treat you well... Regards Antony, Warrington Cheshire....

amazing work very very professional ,great new look for the B&Ws
You should contact B&W about this, they look superb.
Hello Andrew, I'm just about to, great minds think alike, thanks for the kind words 👍
Looking amazing mate 😁
That's so much better. Why would they ruin the beautiful walnut veneer with that red factory varnish?

Looks fabulous. I was wondering what your charges are for a job like this.
Thanks.
A good mask will prevent alot of damage to yourself over the years!

Hi Ashley, I forgot to say, I'm a Furniture restorer & french polisher, with 36 years experience, so I do finishes like this every day😁
Very nice, once again your the man, I hope you charged Elton for extra coats you didn't actually do.
Did he treat you well...
