Our Unique Faux-Wood
Pre-finishing Process
The Unique Colortones’ Complete pre-finishing process produces a consistent, high-quality faux-wood finish.
The Colortones prefinishing process evenly covers every board to ensure consistent, high quality finishes on all material and to protect the life of the finish. This unique process is highly monitored to ensure the same mill thickness for every board. The advantage of prefinishing is that it eliminates onsite staining or painting which frequently results in unpleasant odors, uneven application, problems with shrink lines, lap marks, streaking and over-spraying.
How Our Unique
Prefinishing Process Works
Boards are completely covered on all six sides, or to the manufacturer’s specifications, in a controlled environment, enhancing both durability and beauty.
- Dust and debris-free material is brought to an ideal temperature and hand-fed into the prefinisher.
- All sides of every board are flooded with custom stain or paint to protect the life of the finish.
- Pinch and drive rollers spread the precise amount of stain or paint to provide an even coat on every board.
- Brushes and/or an air knife remove the excess
and ensure that all boards have the same
thickness and that all crevices are filled. Then
all the material is either air-dried or oven-dried at
the same rate.
