Teapots for the craftsman

I bought these two chinese teapot

Coatings for the Chinese Tea Tables

The sealer,coating and hardeners used for the tea tables
are as important and delicate as the carving works done
on every table.
It must be able to provide proper sealing so that
water don't seep through
and spoiled the wood after prolong use and
the top coat must be able to withstand the temperatures
and not get stained by the hot water during the brewing
and cleaning of the tea utensils.
The choice brand is Mirotone

Compressed air and a spray gun will be needed besides proper  PPE for the eyes and lungs.
