I have good luck with well warn old denim for the first few coats. It has a burnishing character to it that softer cotton can't match, i think the hardness of it really forces the pores to fill better and burnishes the wood down better. Then as I approach the finishing coats I switch to softer tee shirt material as it doesn't dig in as much if that makes sense.

Excellent videos and an excellent teacher! I'm not making guitars but because of the quality of these videos, I subscribed to your channel in hopes of learning more.

Thank you! This was very useful. Too much information on the web that just confuses. I've seen people use silk for the outer layer. Do you have experience with this? Does it make a difference vs cotton T-Shirts.

@codelicious6590

Im curious, using the French polish technique can you achieve a sense of depth to the appearance of the finish with enough coats? Or wouyld some other method be better to get a sense of depth?

I'm just about to french polish for the first time and I just threw out all my old while cotton t shirts when I moved a couple months ago.......................................................

You went through a huge effort with those videos, but then we come to the most critical part and you don’t explain some part. What is the talc for? You talk about it, quickly, the type to use, but for what? Pore filling? What is it? You don’t show that.
