What finish for this box?

3543 Views 8 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  Mike
I am about done with a Leopardwood box. Some of the other woods used are: Wenge, Canarywood, Zebrawood, & Bloodwood. I am going to finish with a danish oil, and was wondering if I could/should put a lacquer finish on top. Maybe BLO to pop the grain and then lacquer? I really want the leopardwood to jump out at me. All thoughts welcome.
Thanks, Kevin

If the oil finish is completely dry it can be top coated with lacquer. It seems like aextra work to me. Why not just lacquer ?.

The general finishes called sealers are an oil varnish (danish oil) the topcoat is a polyurethane varnish.
