The process begins with an initial consultation. We’ll go over what you have in mind for your project and talk about different options. Once we’re clear on the vision, we’ll get to work!
We prepare the job site by masking and draping the work area to protect the rest of the space and your property.
Then we remove knobs and other hardware
If needed, we will patch and fill any cracks and gaps in the wood to make it look new again.
Step 2: Cleaning
First, we remove dust and debris on and around the cabinets. We use our unique cleaning solution to clean the surfaces.
Our cleaning draws dirt out of the porous wood to create a seamless finish.
To ensure the area is completely dust-free, we remove and clean air vents
Step 3: Apply Finish
We “remove the grain raise”, which simply means making the wood smoother, and remove contaminates.
The sealer is applied
For a color change, we spray 3 to 5 coats of stain on each piece. (With color shift jobs, color coats are applied by hand.)
Cabinets are then dried (often with a fan).
We polish the cabinets before adding a finish. This is also known as burnishing. Here we remove dust and debris on and around the cabinets. We use our unique cleaning solution to clean the surfaces.
Step 4: Add Protective Finish
A clear coat is applied to protect the stain from rubbing off in the future
After a short dry time, a second coat is applied.
We then use our Lightspeed technology to instantly cure the finish. We “remove the grain raise”, which simply means making the wood smoother, and remove contaminates.
