Craftmanship
1)Raw Wood Selection - All wood is carefully hand selected and assembled for a natural color variation and grain pattern, based on the color of the finish you choose.
2)Hand Sanding - All exposed surfaces are meticulously hand sanded before the finish materials are applied
3) Staining - This is the initial stain coat that is applied to diminish the contrast in wood tone between the lighter color sapwood and the darker heartwood.
4)Sealer Coat - A clear catalyzed sealer is applied over the base stain. This sealer coat helps in keeping excessive moisture out of the wood, as well as maintaining the natural moisture level in the wood.
5)Oven Curing - After the initial sealer coat, the product is oven cured to activate the catalyst in the sealer.
6)Sealer Sanding - After the oven curing, the sealer coat is hand sanded. creates a smooth surface for our next finish application.
7)Staining - The application of additional stain creates the enhanced color by highlighting the grain of the wood to bring out its inherent beauty.Optional Glazing - Light and dark pigments can also be applied at this step in the finishing process to create highlighting and accenting.
8)Oven Curing - After the stain and glaze are hand wiped, the product is oven cured a second time. The oven curing helps build the molecular bonds between the finish materials.
9)Sealer Coat - A second clear catalyzed sealer coat is applied to build on the depth, quality, and durability of the finish.
10)Oven Curing - A third oven curing then takes place.
11)Sealer Sanding - The second sealer coat is then hand sanded to create a very smooth surface for the next application.
12)Topcoat - Final application of a very durable topcoat is applied.
13)Oven Curing - The product is oven cured a fourth time, and completes the chemical bonding needed to produce the most durable finish in the industry.
