11 Step Finish

It Takes an '11 Step Finish' To Create Furniture That Lasts Generations

1. Furniture is sanded over 3 grades 150, 240 and 320 grit

2. One coat of filler is applied and allowed to fully dry, taking over 24 hours

3. Sanded again using 400 grit

4. Finished with fine grade steel wool

5. Hand stained and left to dry for at least 24 hours

6. First coat of sanding sealer applied by spray and allowed to harden (taking 24 hours), then cut back with fine steel wool

7. Second coat of sanding sealer, again cut back with fine steel wool

8. Fine colour toning by spray and allowed to dry for at least 24 hours

9. Matt, semi gloss or full gloss, nitrocellulose top coat applied by spray and left to fully dry and harden, taking 48 hours. Then de-nibbed with fine steel wool and beeswax

10. Polished with beeswax and buffed to create a 'richness' to the furniture

11. A final coat of linseed oil is applied and buffed to enhance the 'feel' of the furniture before being wrapped for shipping
