I know from researching the restoration of painted wooden trim that often the wood used was not high-grade, and was always meant to be painted. But after stripping some paint off some trim at my house, it is clear that after going through several paint layers, the first layer on the wood is some sort of a tinted clear varnish. This seems to me to be an indication that the wood that the trim is made of might in fact be high-grade or “pretty” enough to strip down all the way and finish with something clear, so that the wooden trim looks like wood. Does this seem like an ok assumption, or am I missing something?
