Hi folks,

I'm pondering some finish experimentation. If you were contemplating a finish that was simply tru-oil over shellac, how would you apply a sunburst?

Did this one with analine dyes directly on the curly redwood, then tru-oil right over that.

Rob (or anybody), Is there a source for more information (or tutorial) on the technique of applying a sunburst?
