The twelfth episode in our Marking a Martin Concert series. Now that this instrument is structurally finished, it’s time for varnishing. We use a number of layers of varnish, which protect the wood and enhance its natural figure.
Music: Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston - www.gardnermuseum.org

thanks for the very informative and interesting video. May I ask, what type of UV lamps do you use? My reason for asking I have a large UV lightbox similar to yours, but the UVA tubes I use don't seem to be very effective - the tanning process is very slow unless I use sodium nitrite or Old Wood ground.

oxidizing agent... i think in the episode where you glue the plates to the ribs, i read potassium silicate on the side of a container that darkened the inside. according to an article in scientific american, despite speculation that strad used potassium to oxidize his pieces, spectometry does not show this compound present in any of the instruments tested. i guess one possible method to oxidize is fuming, but that requires tannins in the wood. maple isn't exactly tannic.

Can you confirm that it's potassium bicromate? Or it is mixed with some other chemicals? Can you tell what is it?

Regarding, the varnish , that is traditionally kept secret by violin makers. But I guess it also has something to do with those chicken.

The oxidiser is Sodium Nitrite or something like that. Gives nice hue. But after it the stain is way too dark. And because lack of sealing on the top, the lighter rings soakes more stain. This gives an unpleasant negative effect. What a pity.
