What finishing products can I use?
Stairparts products must be finished after installation, to seal the pores, protect the surface and give the final touches for the best appearance. Some finishes we recommend are wood stains, crackle glaze, marbling, graining, dragging, wax brush, distressed, rag rolling, speckle, sponging, lime wash, or plain painted.
Successful finishing will depend on the correct preparation of the surface, filling of nail holes, and sanding to remove marks which will have occurred during installation.
Our Fusion® collection offers a finished oak and finished pine, and our Immix® collection also offers a finished white oak, with no varnishing or finishing required, your installation time will be cut in half.
