Our Finishing Technique; Our finishing process consists of 3-5 layers of HAPS Free water based paint. Some colors also receive a layer of HAPS Free water based primer. We then apply 2-4 layers of a water based Lacquer, or Urethane depending on distressed or non distress, that has a Satin or Semi Gloss finish, depending on which collection your've ordered from. On most of our finishes, the wood grain will remain visible.
We do not intend to fully cover the natural texture of the wood we use. We instead wish to incorporate the wood grain and texture in our finishes to create a visual and textural experience. Some of our colors will also allow some of the natural wood character to show through more than other colors. Fire Truck red specifically will allow the most natural color to come through. If you wish to have the natura wood hidden as much as possible, please let us know and we will take extra steps to accommodate your order.
These colors are available for all things Relics makes.
On your orders for the Paintbox Collections; Paintbox by Relics, Midtown by Relics, Key West by Relics and Mirabella by Relics, please make sure to indicate whether you are wanting your items distressed or Non distressed.
