At N-Hance®, we’re known for innovation. Part of that includes our unique Lightspeed® Nano UV system, which instantly cures cabinets after refinishing them. Here’s what to know about Lightspeed and why it will deliver superior results when we’re working on your cabinets. 

What is Lightspeed?

If you’ve received a dental filling for a cavity, you’re likely acquainted with light-curing technology. This groundbreaking innovation, akin to Lightspeed, has transformed product manufacturing in numerous industries on a global scale – spanning from the medical and dental fields to manufacturing plants and even the space station.

With the implementation of UV technology, processes that would historically require hours to finalize or cure can now be completed in just seconds. Here at N-Hance, we take pride in using Lightspeed – a UV technology method – to cure our customers’ cabinets. This advanced approach results in a faster turnaround time and a superior quality finish.

In the past, rock-hard finishes were solely obtainable on newly manufactured cabinets. However, with the aid of Lightspeed, you can relish in the best of all worlds – cabinets that boast a factory-like appearance, reinforced strength to withstand harsh kitchen environments and, in addition, are more affordable than conventional refinishing options.

How Does Lightspeed Work?

Once we’ve refinished your cabinets and applied the final top coat, our Lightspeed system comes into play. By emitting UV wavelengths, this innovative technology triggers faster curing. Our products further contain photoinitiators that react to this UV light and immediately start the curing process. This method stands in stark contrast to thermal oxygen curing or heat that traditional cabinet refinishers frequently implement.

With a more traditional approach to curing, it can take up to two weeks to be able to fully use your kitchen cabinets once they are refinished. With N-Hance of Southeast Tennessee, the finish will be durable, yet ready to use as soon as we are done. This means no waiting around to get back into your kitchen and return to normal life. It’s a less stressful, more efficient process for you and your  family.

Some of the other advantages of Lightspeed include:

A Rock-Hard Finish 

Finishes cured with LIghtspeed are smoother, tighter, and more flexible. This means the finish on your cabinets will last longer and be resistant to stains, chips, scuffs, and scratches. You’ll get both beauty and durability that sets our cabinets apart.

Superior Performance in a Kitchen Environment

KItchens are one of the most used spaces in a home, and they are often one of the messiest too. Thanks to the proprietary products we use, combined with our Lightspeed system, your cabinets will be resistant to oil, grease splatter, fingerprints, and constant wear and tear. Not every finish is designed to hold up in a kitchen, but N-Hance’s products are. 

Easy-to-Clean Cabinets

With a Lightspeed finish, your kitchen cabinets will also be easy to clean and maintain. All you need is a damp microfiber cloth to gently wipe down your cabinets. If you have build-up from oil and grease, then use a mild dish soap and water combination and let it sit on the surface for up to one minute. Wipe it gently with a cloth. 

Less VOCS and More Family-Friendly

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted from traditional paint products and primers. When these compounds are in the air, they can irritate your family and pets and also cause harm to the environment. 

With N-Hance, most of our products are low-VOC. Plus, with our Lightspeed system, we’ll limit any exposure to lingering VOCs even further since your cabinets are cured instantly.
