Finish:

All cabinets are hand sanded prior to staining. A penetrating grain stain is then applied and hand-wiped. The sealer coat , which is a catalyzed conversion coating, is sprayed and cured. This sealer is a blending of alkyd, amino and vinyl resins, which contributes to the overall durability of the system by penetrating the grain of the wood and providing a "link" coat between the stain and topcoat The sealer is then sanded and prepared for the topcoat application.

The final coating is a catalyzed, conversion varnish which is a carefully formulated combination. After a spray application the film is cured and cross links to form a superior thermoset coating that possesses exceptional stain, moister and chemical resistance, while retaining its clarity.

Pulls and knobs are available in a variety of styles and are furnished at no charge, with each cabinet ordered.
