Finish advice needed for Camphor Laurel
Good Morning,
I need some advice from the experts. I am making a side table from a highly figured, diagonally cut slab of Camphor Laurel.
I brushed some turps on to see what effect finishing might have and it was much darker than I wanted. The figure went from mid brown to almost ebony color. Brushing water on was not as darkening.
What would you recommend to provide a durable, non darkening finish?

Thanks in advance,
