All this talk of finishes on wooden planes has sparked a question. Is there an easy "flowchart" type way of determining what kind of finish is on a plane (or anything for that matter)? I think I heard that alcohol will dissolve shellac, but not varnish or poly. That mineral spirits will dissolve both varnish and shellac, but not poly. I could be way off here. Any tips or websites that help you identify a finish? Matthew Groves |
