It does very slightly. But it’s a little bit loose when it’s wet, even when you stretch it into place. It works beautifully.

I’ve got two dark rattan swivel egg chairs – one new and one old that are darker brown…would love to look more like a “natural” rattan color!!

I am also refinishing a similar rattan shelf. I was wondering if you had any tips for tucking the rattan into the tight spaces? Most of my pieces are broken off inside the place where the rattan would get tucked. I would love any tips! Thanks
