Fiddes Heavy French Polish is much-loved amongst antique restorers and cabinet makers for creating a rich and warm tone. It has a higher shellac content and can be used instead of a wood dye to create the amber, high gloss appearance required of many period antique finishes.
Fiddes Shellac Polishes are recommended for use on Furniture, Doors, Cabinet Work and Panelling.
Fiddes Shellac Polishes are ideally suited for application on top of Fiddes range of Wood Stains, Dyes & Shellac Sanding Sealer.
Fiddes ranges of French Polishes are internationally used by the fine woodworking and antique restoration trades, blended in the UK with the finest natural Shellac for over four generations.
