I saw LMI had a french polishing video but after not finding anything in my search, are there any good french polish "instruction" dvds out there?

Me too. Although I'm not aware of any others, you won't go wrong with the Fernandez DVD.

Yeap, I also have Ron Fernandez DVD. It's is a good one and he makes it look so easy. Lots of info.

I agree with the other post. I have the Fernandez DVD and have found it very useful.

Robbie O'Brien's DVD on Guitar Finishing also has a French Polishing section, and is available from LMI as well. His technique is based on the Marshall Brune approach, which is not advocated by some of the members here who use a more traditional approach. I've been using Robbie's directions so far myself.
