Applying Yorkshire Grit

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Applying Yorkshire Grit is an easy process and is intended to be applied after sanding a turning to 220 grit. In this video Larry demonstrates how to apply the sanding paste to a turning. He is preparing the piece for it's final finish. The final finish does need to be one that will completely dry like Polyurethane, Lacquer, Hampshire Sheen or any other permanent finish.

I've used Yorkshire grit on most of my work and so far I have not encountered any problems with any follow up treatment, from oils to varnishes. To qualify this comment I would like to say I am new to turning but have probably completed about 100 pieces in the 6 month I've been doing it. Once again thankyou Larry, great quality video and information. Lee
Best explanation of Yorkshire grit I’ve ever seen. Really cleared up some questions for me. Thanks!
Nice video sir, you are a great teacher. I have just bought some Yorkshire grit and microfine. I also live in Yorkshire England.
Thank you for the kind comments. You will love the product.
I really like Yorkshire Grit and the white fine finish. I have used Danish oil after using Yorkshire Grit, works well, makes the grain pop, in my humble opinion
Thank you. This will certainly help me. Great video.
Glad it was helpful!
Good video, just starting out woodturning and find things like this extremely helpful.
Glad it was helpful. Good luck on your woodturning journey and come back :)
Thank you ...
Excellent video... many thanks for explaining the advantages of the grit... Wondered if it was necessary or not and now I know it really will be.
It really is a great product. Use it all the time.
Really helpful video - thanks for posting
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!!!
Excellent product.
Great video review of Yorkshire grit
Take care
Rob
Thanks Rob! I appreciate it.
Good info! thanks
Thanks Don!
At 7:12 I mention that I may go ahead and finish with Yorkshire Grit... I meant Hampshire Sheen :)
when are you going to do the follow-up with Hampshire Sheen?
Dean, I hope to have that for you in the next couple of weeks :)
Llarry, great video with an excellent thumbnail! Sorry your video never showed up when I was researching abrasive paste for my last video. I wonder if you populate your About tab might make you show up more on suggested or searched videos? Keep up the good work.
Thanks Mike! I do need to do that don't I? Thanks again for your comment.
I don't understand how you can apply a finish on top of this grit paste if it has wax??? Wouldn't the wax keep the final finish from curing??
wondered the same, before oiling I wipe down with denatured alcohol to clean off the wax
Does the wax in the Yorkshire not keep the finish from curing properly?
As long as the top coat is not a penetrating oil it will not. Film finishes will be fine. i.e. lacquer, poly etc.
@@missouriturner Thanks for the quick reply. I've stopped using micro mesh and am using glu boost followed by EEE then plastic polish on my pens. Seems like all sanding abrasives have wax in them.
Do you prefer Yorkshire grit to Acks paste? I am from Yorkshire - we don’t seem to be able to get Acks over here.
Hampshire sheen is not food safe. The Y.Grit works good but the wax in it does limit the types of finish you can apply over it.
There are many that would disagree with you. I am not a scientist nor do I play one on tv but, there are many who agree that once fully cured just about any finish is food safe. Some finishes take weeks or longer to fully cure. I would not be afraid to eat of this one... but, I also like raw oysters....
Is the Mylands Sanding sealer along with the Yorkshire Grit and Hampshire Sheen food Safe? I cant find any information of the mylands sanding sealer.
How does this compare with Ack's abrasive paste and polishing paste?
You know, I haven't tried Ack's. However, Ack's didn't come along until well after Yorkshire Grit.
You used cellulose sealer after sanding. Does it matter what sanding sealer you use? Thanks.
I prefer Mylands but am certain you could use most any good sealer.
Do you dilute the Myland cellulose sealer? Lacquer thinner?
Yes... sorry for the late response.
I have a question for ya, why not use cotton cloth? Is paper towels recommend?
Lint free is key. 👍
Do what we did in the Army to get an amazing finish on our shoes - use old wadded-up pantyhose.
How does this differ from Yorkshire Grit Microfine Paste?
Microfine is mainly for plastics.
But I've used both on woods and plastics before and it's been fine
