"I'm now going to be demonstrating how to seal your furniture. Whether you've stained it, or painted it, you can still seal it. The kind of sealer that I'll be using, is a depth sealer. It's a clear wood finish, a satin lacquer. You can either brush it on, or spray it on. I'm going to be spraying it, through this spray gun to get a nice even finish. You can buy this in either quart cans, gallon cans, or in a spray can. Always be sure to use the respirator, when using this. Once your paint or stain that you plan on sealing is dry, then it's time to either brush, or spray on your sealer. With your respirator on, begin to spray, or either brush on your finish. After you're done spraying on a coat of sealer, then you need to let it dry, probably fifteen to twenty minutes, with the depth. It's something like polyurethane, you would need to let set for several hours, before it was dry to the touch."
