Finishes and Coatings
The MetalWood™ Process
- Mouldings and/or woodcarvings are prepared to accept the metal coating and to ensure complete adhesion to the surface.
- The 95% real-metal MetalWood™ finish is applied by hand using a cold-spray process, then convection cured at a temperature range of 86 to 91 degrees F.
- After curing, the polishing process begins with sand-blasting the finish. (Any patina is hand-applied at this time.)
- Next, each piece is given a top coat and is then hand-polished to bring out the unique metal finish. (Please note that a top coat is not applied to the Iron Rust finish.)
MetalWood™ Touch-Up Recommendations
To minimize the appearance of nail holes, place nails in discreet areas of the surface. For Brass, Bronze and Nickel finishes, use Minwax Blendfil Pencil No. 8 to fill nail holes. For copper finishes, use Minwax Blendfil No. 5.
Fabulous Finishes install with standard woodworking tools. Take extra care when installing with pneumatic nail guns.
Please inquire about minimum orders related to our Fabulous Finishes. And remember, in addition to our stock items, custom mouldings and woodcarvings can be finished as well!
