Stained Finishes with Glaze Technique

Glaze hang-up from light to dark tones.

Glaze Finish applied to entire door, then “hand wiped” to create inconsistent hang-up in corners and recessed areas.

Oven-cured, baked-on finish and topcoat.

Shown in Monterey Maple, Honey Java.

• Created by applying an accent stain over the entire door, then wiping off the glaze leaving a ‘hang up’ of light to dark tones in the corners, deep grooves and wood grain creating an all over glazed look • Technique purposely creates an uneven, inconsistent look of light to dark tones • Hand rubbed application • Bead board grooves retain more glaze resulting in a darker color in the grooves • Color appearance is affected by natural wood variation, graining, lighting, profiles and edge shapes • Translucent and lighter colored stain finishes will allow more of the wood’s natural variation to be visible through the finish • Dark stains may accentuate certain features in the wood instead of covering them • Recommend viewing a door sample prior to ordering
