How to varnish classical guitars...

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 08:01:00 +0100

The guitarproject is making good progress. Time for varnishing now. Unlike I do when varnishing violins, I proceed in varnishing guitars using a traditional wood finishing technique called "french polishing". The methode is simple but it needs a lot of time to get good results.

Biography Shellac

Shellac
Shellac is a brittle or flaky secretion of the lac insect Kerria lacca, found in the forests of Assam and Thailand. Freed from wood it is called "seedlac". Once it was commonly believed that shellac was a resin obtained from the wings of an insect (order Hemiptera) found in India. In actuality, shellac is obtained from the secretion of the female insect, harvested from the bark of the trees where she deposits it to provide a sticky hold on the trunk. There is a risk that the harvesting process can scoop the insect up along with the secretion, leading to its death. The natural coloration of lac residue is greatly influenced by the sap consumed by the lac insect and the season of the harvest. Generally in the trade of seedlac there are two distinct colors; the orange Bysacki and the blonde Kushmi. When purified, the chemical takes the form of golden yellow/ golden brown flakes, this possibly providing the basis for the "Wing Source Story."
