Sorry Neil, I goofed You did NOT recommend flannelette sheeting as a shellac applicator.
One other goof according to LOML was that linen tea towels if bought new should no be used until they have been boiled.

It works for me...
G'Day Jerry,
When I first started out French polishing many moons ago, I used to fill the pad with cotton batting as I was taught. I stopped doing that many years ago, because I coluld fold the cloth into a ball, and instead of having the batton inside I had just the one oiece of cloth, and now my pads are all in one piece and no the two.
This has worked fine for me for 50 years, so, I will stick with it for now.
Jerry, I found out a long time ago, what works for me, is best for me.

dear macs,
No argument with such a theory. It's the way I go too. If everyone did the same thing where would this forum be? Ain't no fun in being uniform in approach
