Now, I have the information I need to be able to reproduce a 2-part urethane finish in my back yard... with CONFIDENCE. Dave
The 2-part urethane finishing video by Jeff Jewitt is so well done I purchased three other video courses this morning and am learning at a much more accelerated rate than my previous YouTube strategy. So thankful I discovered Lutherie Academy and even more for the incredible amount of effort you have poured into providing a superb level of education. Dave in Miami
