Blackfriar French Polish is available online, from PAINT Direct, with two day delivery. It is suitable for use on new wood or surfaces that have been stained or even previously French polished. The natural beauty of the wood is best displayed with this classic fine finish.
Up to approximately 14m2 per litre, per coat, depending upon the nature and absorbency of the surface being painted.
Ensure the product is thoroughly shaken prior to use. The product is applied using a 'rubber' which is made by wrapping a pad of cotton wool in a lint free cloth. Soak the rubber with polish, squeezing out any excess.
Lubricate the rubber with a drop of linseed oil then work it over the entire surface of the wood in circular, overlapping loops. Refill and relubricate the rubber as it dries and go over the entire surface again. Allow to dry overnight. Abrade any raised wood fibres with very fine grade sand paper, then apply more coats as required, allowing each coat to dry thoroughly. Lastly fill the rubber with polish thinned with methylated spirit, squeeze until nearly dry then go over the whole surface once more. When fully dry, burnish to a high gloss with a pad containing a little methylated spirit.
Take extra care as application cloths and soiled cleaning rags may self ignite without warning. Lay cloths out
flat in single layers to dry, or wash out thoroughly in warm soapy water before disposal. Remove as much product
from application equipment as possible before washing with methylated spirit.
Do not use or store in extremes of temperature and protect from frost.
