In this class, we’ll have the assistance of the subject matter experts from General Finishes and Apollo Sprayers! We’ll cover finishing techniques – wood preparation, staining, color layering and top coating, and we’ll discuss the reasons for selecting the various finishes, based on the desired outcome of the project. We will be finishing a couple of pieces of furniture, so you can see the finished results in the class.
In the process, we will incorporate the theory behind HVLP Spraying and the technique of spray finishing. Our goal here is to “de-mystify the art of spray finishing”. Most people do not realize how simple it is to spray finish, especially with the best-in-class Apollo HVLP spraying system.
There is a minimal charge for this class: $15.00. Seating is limited, so reserve your seat as soon as possible! Call: 815.701.9400 to reserve your seat.
The date on this event is tentative!!! We are still working out the details. Check back for an update.
This event will give you an opportunity to meet with and ask questions of the many vendors Bull Valley Hardwood works with. There will be sales on most products and raffles for “giveaways”!
This class will cover the two major categories of wood – Hardwood & Softwood. The focus of the class will be on domestic and exotic hardwoods.
We will cover hardwood lumber grading; common defects and their impact on the wood and your wood project; & wood movement and project design considerations, as a result of wood movement.
We will also review sheet goods – grades, uses and types.
There is a $25.00 charge for this class. Please register and pay in advance.
