Heads >> Glossing Project Description

This includes making the cabinets softer by shaping the sharp edges and then glossing out all teak with varnish.

Varnishinig Cabinets Cabinet doors are removed in the preparation of sanding all of the teak. Teak will then be varnished with a gloss finish.

Note the door trim that will need to be varnished. There are three entrances into this head, all with doors and trim that will need to be varnished. Additionally, the trim around the shower door will also need to be sanded.
