<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Wneva, post: 10651807, member: 94676&quot;]Hello folks</p><p><br /></p><p>I have bought an old writing slope in poor condition, in the hope of being able to restore it.&nbsp; Here are couple of pics - one after I took the brassware off, and one showing the condition of the top - it loks a bit better now after some work with the wire wool.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve cleaned the brassware, and I&#039;ve rubbed down the veneer with fine wire wool. It was sold as figured walnut - I hope that&#039;s true as I know walnut is very fine. I&#039;ll need to repair quite a bit of damage to the surface and the corners, and it needs a new skiver.</p><p><br /></p><p>And when the repairs are done, it needs a finish to bring out the figure of the veneer. One person has urged me to give it a coat of polyurethane - I&#039;m not at all</p><p>[ATTACH=full]532838[/ATTACH] sure about that. Has anyone got a better suggestion for a finish for the veneered surfaces?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]532839[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
