Restoring Eames shells - a useful link  

I actually have a Zenith shell which is so far beyond it's 'glory days' that I might actually try something as drastic as that...
The problem is that I live in Sweden and I have been unable to locate Flood's products here. I know you are in Denmark m_andersen, so maybe you have some ideas where to look?
The product used by mr chairfag is called 'Penetrol' but I also found this product on the Flood website:
http://www.flood.com/flood/Products/Discontinued/Glasworks+Marine+Produc...
It says it's a discontinued product... Wonder why? It seems to have shorter drying time than Penetrol, which would be nice...

I don't know if this helps,
but I found out that Penetrol is called Polytrol here in Germany, the maker is Owatrol. It's the same thing and maybe available in Sweden as well.

Don't know if it's just the photos...
But I think I'd opt for a standard clearcoat if I were going to attempt this. The Penetrol looks far too glossy to my eye. And the fact that it's oil based surely plays a part in it.
