Ep. 62: Preparing spirit varnish

Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Hi to all my friends, Here comes the spirit varnish preparation video. If you are in hurry, and you don't want to capture all my nice hidden hummer, go straight to the recipe and feel happy that you got my recipe: 3 liters of Alcohol 400 grams of Shellac (Cremonese gomma lacca tipo "angelo") the most economic one is the best 200 grams of juniper ( in italiano: Ginepro o Sandracca) 80 grams of Mastic (mastice) 50 grams of Benzole (hope it is called like this also in English 16 grams of Curcumin This is the "transparent"/yellow varnish. Actually I have never made transparent varnish since yellow for us violinmakers is the transparent one. If you need completely transparent one or less yellow one, leave the curcumin out and or search also for less yellow shellac in that case. Varnishing with this one is easy and quick drying, and it works very well. Let me know if someone need the resin mix, so I will calculate how much it is, and I can send it to you. Alcool I am not allowed to ship by today 31 of January 2020. Hope you enjoyed this video Let me know and give me a thumb up.
