SCHROCK CABINETRY’S 12-STEP FINISHING PROCESS
1. Wood Selection
The selection of the finest woods including oak, maple, cherry, hickory, and rustic
maple is the essential first step of Schrock’s 12-step finishing process.
2. Sanded to Perfection
Our sanding utilizes an ultra fine grit paper, both with and against the wood grain.
This process is completed on a vacuum table, allowing for a wood surface that is
free of all dust particles.
3. Achieving Natural Wood Tone
Toner is applied to selective door styles, enhancing the naturalistic wood appearance.
4. Stain Application
A hand –sprayed deep penetrating stain is evenly applied to all surfaces for even coverage on all profiles.
5. Removal of Excess Stain
The wood is hand-wiped to remove excess stain, emphasizing the cabinet’s natural
wood grain.
6. Catalyzed Sealer
A tough, clear, catalyzed sealer is hand-sprayed to protect the grain from moisture.
7. Drying Process
For added durability, the sealed wood is oven cured to lock in the beauty of wood.
8. Hand-Sanded
To achieve an ultra-smooth finish, we hand-sand the material one last time.
9. Dust Removal
The resulting loose dust particles are removed from the surface of the wood.
10. Catalyzed Top Coat
A premium quality catalyzed clear top coat is applied to protect the wood from environmental element.
11. Oven Cure
The top coat is cured to guarantee the strongest, most beautiful finish.
12. Final Inspection
This last inspection is very thorough, ensuring quality and beauty. Our gift to you
is that every cabinet is crafted with care.
