Understanding Wood Finishing HC - A Wonderful and Informative Book I was getting ready to put the final finish on a High End Project and I had a few concerns, I saw this book listed on Amazon, I've been Custom Woodworking for 30+ years and I was a Customer Service Representative for a well known coatings company for many years for the offshore and marine industry- I started applying coatings to aircraft when I was 20 (now at 59 I still am learning) it helped me clear-up a few questionable areas on my project. This is a very informative book, it covers all facets of Wood Finishing and most of the little known facts about foreign species. I will add that I may do some things different, this book is a great addition to my woodworking librarywood finishing 201 Don't think of this as a how-to manual for slapping on finish and being done. But rather a text book diving into the main types of finish, the chemistry of how the dry, or cure, and proper techniques of application. Bob Flexner really knows his stuff, and lays everything out in an organized format. Like I said, this book is laid out the same way as a college text book would be, as I'm sure woodworking schools use this in their curriculum. I've read most of it, reading and re reading the chapters that pertain to my purposes, while skimming over others, like the more advanced color techniques. He spends a great deal of time with the how and why finishes differ; their chemistry, their history, and the myths surounding them, which in the world of finishes, I though was very helpful (he says that many manufacturers are diliberatly ambiguous). Also for the less literate, ders whots of pictors :). All in all, a very useful reference to have
