Restore a Slate Marble Clock case. Refinish Restoration and Repair basics.

This is a short version of the longer detailed explanation in the complete full length 4+ hour “Clock Case Repair & Restoration” course. There are many more lessons and tips discussed in the full length course.
There is a right way and many wrong ways of restoring antique clock cases. Unfortunately, we mostly see well meaning finish restorations that are done in the wrong way. Seeing many bad case repair jobs can be very disheartening. This means the clock is being ruined and destroyed. Sometimes these finish repairs are reversible, but many times the damage is irreversible. As time goes on, there are less and less clocks remaining to be never replaced again. Antique clocks are a part of history and a part of civilization. More often than not, I generally find many ill advised refinishes, restorations or rejuvenations that were done with the thought that it was the appropriate thing to do.
