Different finishes for wood
Finishes: provides a solution that is used to add beauty and gives protection to the wood.
The finishing process depends partly on - type of wood.- The appearance we want.
Different types of finishes are:
- VarnishVarnishes are one of the most protective finishes available. This level of protection increases with additional layers.Slow drying and not very good at color retention.

Finishes for metals
Oil & greaseSteels rust (except stainless steel) so they need to be protected against moisture and air.Coating in oil or grease is effective as long as the coating is not removed.
Plastic dip coating It is very effective as it can change the appearance as well e.g. the shelves in fridges and dishwashers are plastic coated.
Painting is the most common way of protecting steel from rusting e.g. car bodies, white goods, filing cabinets etc
Lacquer – this a clear finish like a varnish. The surface is thoroughly polished or patterned, degreased and then lacquered.
ElectroplatingThis is used to apply a layer of another metal such as chromium or nickel which do not rust and can be highly polished.
Galvanising It is a form of electroplating which applies a layer of zinc a dull silver grey finish is usually produced. The layer of zinc is usually thick to protect steelwork used outside e.g. fences, water tanks etc.
PolishingPolishing creates a shiny surface through the action of rubbing or the application of chemicals. These remove the oxides on the surface of the metal. The process of polishing needs repeating regularly to maintain shine.
