Eagle Restored

IMG_0142 (440x330)

We purchased this chain saw art about 15 years ago. It was completed with a poly finish when we bought it. Each year the Eagle gets tucked inside the potting shed before winter arrives. Over the years there were areas where no doubt air and dirt had gotten under the original finish and it began looking gray and dingy. Dennis, armed with multiple sizes of brass brushes, decided the wood needed to be cleaned up. We can’t put Thompson’s water sealant on it as not all of the old poly has been removed in the small crevices. After a bit more elbow grease and all of the dust blown off, it will get an exterior poly applied. If this layer lasts as long as the last one . . . we will not have to worry about it. Snuggles took it upon himself to issue a mandated break from the work.
