    Having already tried to apply varnish and facing the difficulties, you realise how much of an artist this man is. Beautiful work!!

    I've been tipping and rolling my varnish for quite some time . It gets it on there even and fast . It's good to know that the master approves .

    I am just restoring a 1959 mahagony motor boat. Varnishing is the task I am scared of the most. So this video comes handy. Thank you Mr. Sauzedde for showing that a perfect result can be achieved by a non-varnisher. Best regards from Elsfleth, Germany.

    Absolutely love it. When I teach people how to paint I always break it down to 3 steps. 1 get the material on the surface 2. Spread it out. 3. Make it pretty. Most people try to combine the steps and screw it up.

    This is a perfect lesson. I have been varnishing something but I made the mistake of not watching anything before hand, so I am not satisafied with it. Luckily though I have built up 6 layers and I was sanding between, albeit a bit heavy at 240 grit. But now I can roller on and know to tip after. I'll see ow it goes.

    What you refer to as tipping would be called brushing out in the UK. Tipping out might be confused with pouring varnish directly onto the surface on this side of the pond.

  • @PeterWMeek
    @PeterWMeek 7 лет назад +2

    There is just something about a traditional long-oil varnish that can't be duplicated with modern synthetic varnishes (epoxy and the like).

    In another video a penetrating epoxy was used to recover a varnished rowboat seat that was damaged by the sun, weather and water. Would the use of this epoxy instead of varnish be a superior treatment?

    This might seem like a bit of a captain obvious question - Would you use the same vanishing process on your boat? I have a Mirror that I want to strip back and vanish the topside.

    • @thatherton
      @thatherton 7 лет назад +2

      You probably wouldn't want to use a roller on a mirror. I'm assuming the surface area of the wood on the mirror is much smaller and more detailed than a large deck box like this. A small brush would work better to apply and tip off the varnish with.

  • @alancarlyon3928
    @alancarlyon3928 5 лет назад +1

    A roller is always best on big flat areas and obviously use a brush for awkward curves and edges, but be aware that you use a thin shag pile roller - not fabric or sponge rollers! Every DIY man/woman should watch this video and learn the proper way to paint! Great footage in how it is done! Well done Sir!!
