Mylands French Polish

This is a rich, medium brown coloured polish which is commonly used on darker timbers such as walnut, oak and mahogany. French polish produces a warm, dark transparent coating which cannot be reproduced by modern synthetic lacquers.

Mylands Shellac Polishes

Although French polish is the general term for all types of Shellac Polish, it is also a Shellac Polish colour in its own right.

Mylands' range contains many blends of Shellac Polish which have been developed over the years to fulfil various different requirements – some of which are slightly modified products for a specific purpose.

They come in various depths of colour, which give the French Polisher latitude to choose the most appropriate product for the timber being polished.

Shellac products have a variety of uses from finishing antiques and reproduction furniture to acting as a non-reactive barrier between two normally incompatible finishes. They are particularly useful when refurbishing furniture as they will seal in any wax product which may have been applied to the furniture in the past.
