<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sam Carpenter, post: 10780184, member: 93610&quot;]When restoring veneered surfaces, especially figured walnut, it’s best to avoid heavy finishes like polyurethane since they can sometimes give the surface a plasticky look and hide the natural figure. For antiques, traditional methods like oil or hardwax finishes tend to bring out the warmth and depth of the veneer much more beautifully. I’d recommend looking into eco-friendly options, as they not only highlight the grain but also provide lasting protection without being harsh on the wood. Products such as <a href="https://saicoscanada.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://saicoscanada.com" rel="nofollow">Saicos Ecofriendly Wood Finishes in Canada</a> are often used by restorers for this purpose. They’re designed to enhance the natural figure of veneers while remaining safe to work with. Once you’ve completed the repairs and sanding, applying a natural oil-based finish like this can really make the walnut come alive.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
