Time to (re)finish my shed. Need some advice.
I finally have some time on my hand to take care of my neglected shed. I already started sanding the remnants of old linseed oil finish, but I'm unsure what to do next. First question I've got is how to sand inside the grooves. I can do the sides with a detail sander but I have no idea how to tackle the bottoms of the grooves - besides good old sandpaper on a thin piece of wood and a lot of elbow grease... Next problem is that some of the boards have bowed, like on the second picture. What's the suggested course of action here? And the last thing is a finish choice. After some googling I've stumbled upon yacht varnish. Is it a good idea? What kind of sealant or primer would I need for that finish? submitted by /u/tupisac [link] [comments]
