Wood Finishes

There are several types of finishes we can use on our products, depending on how the product will be used.  Here are the choices:

  • Waterlox – Clear tung oil-based finish used on countertops and furniture
  • Catalyzed Lacquer – Clear, hard finish used on tables/furniture
  • Acrylic Urethane – Clear, water-based, environmentally friendly, used on furniture
  • Food Grade Mineral Oil – Clear, used on cutting boards/butcher blocks

Waterlox

   

Wood countertops are one of the hottest trends in the home building industry and now with the use of Waterlox as a finish, they are easy to maintain.  We use four coats of Waterlox to seal our countertops.  Waterlox provides a waterproof, durable surface that is non-toxic, and does not leave water spots or rings.  Waterlox does not need to be reapplied constantly like mineral oil.  With the use of Waterlox, we are able to install under/over mount sinks and stovetops directly on wood surfaces.  For more information on Waterlox visit waterlox.com

Catalyzed Lacquer

   

Catalyzed Lacquer is a very hard, durable finish we use on tables, chairs, coffee tables and other furniture.  It is the same type of finish commonly used on most of the furniture you have in your house.  It is easy to keep clean, does not easily spot or stain, and is available in several sheens.

   
     

Water-based Acrylic Urethane

   

There is a very strong trend in the finishing industry to move towards water-based finishes.  Over the past several years, the hardness and toughness of these new finishes are starting to rival that of the oil-based finishes.  If you are looking for a great finish that is very low in VOCs and easy on the environment, ask for Water-based Acrylic Urethane. 

   
     

Food Grade Mineral Oil

   

Mineral oil has been used for generations.  It is still considered the best product to use on cutting boards and butcher blocks.  Food-grade mineral oil is non-toxic, food safe, and can be applied at any time.  It is inexpensive and available through most kitchen stores and/or directly from us.   Mineral oil can and should be applied whenever your cutting board or chopping block looks dry.
