Protective Coatings

Varnish: Ranging in finishes from matte to high-gloss, varnish can be thought of as a top coat that will protect wood furniture from UV damage.
Lacquer: Lacquer is an easy-to-apply polish that can repair small scratches and scuff marks, and provide some defense against sun damage.
Polyurethane: Not only will polyurethane protect your wood from the sun, but it will also bring out your wood’s natural beauty.

Protect your wood from the elements

Wood Waterproofing– By water proofing the wood surfaces on the exterior of your home, such as siding, decks, and stairs, you can ensure that they will last a lifetime and not need replacement. Wood indoors isn’t safe either from potential water damage, which will greatly accelerate its deterioration.
sunlight Damage– One component of sunlight is ultraviolet light, commonly referred to as UV. UV light is responsible for most damage to exposed wood because it changes or destroys the wood’s lignin, a component of wood that hardens and strengthens the cell walls. In more scientific terms this process is called photo-oxidation. Sunlight causes damage to wood over time, causing it to fade, deteriorate, and lead to wood rot. With a premium finish you protect it against UV rays, which are a must with exterior or interior surfaces.
Effects of Aging– Mold, Mildew, and wear and tear.

Customize your wood with a color

Custom Color your Wood– One great advantage of custom wood staining is that it can completely change the look and appeal of your wood surfaces, offering you a variety of options as far as their color. While some people prefer to paint over wood, finishing can offer rich, warm results that can be tailored to complement nearly any design choice.
