Double Door Spray

Big night for the door work. After several manual application attempts failed… Liz determined that the best way to apply her suspended dye/shellac mixture was to use a sprayer. So she headed out to Rockler in the suburbs, to pick up a unit.

In the meanwhile, I got the dining room ready to serve as a temporary spray booth. This meant covering up the walls with plastic, and making the whole area look like a serial killer’s playpen.

The front door, with its initial clear, seal coat of shellac.

Liz, filling in some areas by hand with her concentrate mixture.

A careful, manual process.

Protecting the room with plastic.

It’s a little crazy, but it’s enough to guard the walls.

Doors, prepped and ready.

And… done! We ended up opening the door in the kitchen, to help air out the room.
