Varnishing wood isn’t just about making it shiny — it’s about protecting it, preserving its character, and giving it the finish it deserves.
Whether you’re working on floors, furniture, bannisters or kitchen counters, here’s how to do it properly — no shortcuts.
Lac (or varnish) seals the wood against:
1: avoid humid days — varnish doesn’t cure well in damp air
2: warm up the tin slightly in winter for smoother flow
3: don’t overload your brush — thin coats win every time
Varnishing isn’t complicated — but doing it right takes care, patience and the right materials.
If you want your wood to look good and last, follow these steps and skip the “quick jobs.”
