<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Wneva, post: 10650162, member: 94676&quot;]Hello everyone</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve just joined the forum.&nbsp; I have bought an old writing slope in poor condition, in the hope of being able to restore it.&nbsp; I&#039;ve cleaned the brassware, and I&#039;ve rubbed down the veneer with fine wire wool.&nbsp; It was sold as figured walnut - I hope that&#039;s true&nbsp; as I know walnut is very fine.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ll need to repair some damage to the surface and the corners, and it needs a new skiver.&nbsp; But when the repairs are done, it needs a finish to bring out the figure of the veneer.&nbsp; One person has urged me to give it a coat of polyurethane - I&#039;m not sure about that.&nbsp; Has anyone got a better suggestion for a finish for the veneered surfaces?</p><p><br /></p><p>Best wishes to you all - Wneva[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
