This course is full of great information in regards to a brushed high gloss finish, and was very well produced. Whether you are preparing to tackle your first high gloss door, or have already tried your hand at a few, this course has a lot to offer. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to get started using FPE. Great job Zach!

I learned a lot during this video. It's very helpful to see the whole process step by step. The details of the equipment needed as well as best practices regarding craftsmanship helped me have a realistic expectation of my ability to do this job as I practice making sample boards. Perhaps the most important thing I learned was managing expectations; making sure my client is getting what they're paying for and that I'm not driving myself. Insane. Trying to deliver something they're not willing to pay for or I don't have the time to accomplish and provide for my family. Thank you Zach, keep up the good work!
