I wrapped up these eight dining room chairs a few weeks ago, amen for that!
The chairs were sent to the finisher for final sanding and the spraying of lacquer. Some people might feel that's "cheating" by not finishing them myself. But - to me, it makes a lot of sense to hire a professional to do what they do best!
Hector has been a finisher for years, and my friends who have used him rave about his work.
Each chair had multiple coats of sanding sealer,
followed by a few coats of clear lacquer.
Now they're headed to the upholsterer.
I can't wait to see the finished chair!
So - yes, the finishing and the upholstery was outsourced. What's that Dirty Harry line?... a man's got to know his limitations? I fully understand that I'll never be an expert at spraying lacquer, and I'll certainly never be a master upholsterer! So it's much smarter to turn to the pros for this work.
Stay tuned for final pictures soon!
