Subject: Varnish on gilded teak settee
I have an Gilded Teak Settee which is experiencing blistering of varnish on the seat located on its proper right. I proposed a treatment using Lascaux 4176 and heat tacking method to re-adhere the lifting varnish coating on mentioned area of settee and similarly to reduce the level of bulging of varnish on mentioned area respectively. This reduces the bulging and re-adhere the lifting of varnish, however the blistering marks are still visible on the settee. Can I ask for suggestion in treating this?
