Oregon Resin

Hey guys,

I am in the process of lacquering some Oregon floating shelves and i am having trouble with resin seeping through the lacquer from resin veins/cracks. Is there a product out there than can prevent this from happening? I will post some photos tonight if that would help.

I am using a 30% satin lacquer.

Any thoughts appreciated and thanks in advance.

Here are the pictures of the worst areas.

In my experience it happens and there is nothing you can do about it

I've found the "turps" smell and bleeding in freshly cut 100 year old house timbers

I ended up digging the veins out a bit more with a chisel and filled with putty. Seems to be working at this stage.
