The 2nd volume of the new video series from MR shows a segment on putting together a laser-cut wood structure kit. The first step they show is to spray the sheets of parts with a wood sealer to prevent moisture from warping the wood. This seems very sensible. The question is, where can I obtain such a sealer? I find nothing on the Testor-Floquil website that corresponds to this sealer, nor on the web sites for Home Depot or my local Ace Hardware store. I must be looking in the wrong place or under the wrong name. Can you help? Is such a sealer necessary?
A further question: I would normally paint the models with Polly Scale, a water-based paint. But considering the nature of the wood, should the paint instead be a spirit-based pint like Floquil?
Thanks for the help.
