CUSTOM COLORS

A stain is a basic yet substantial finish that adds color to wood while revealing the beauty of the grain. The wood type affects the color of the stain, so the same stain will look different on each wood type. In some cases, the difference is dramatic. For the richest, most consistent color coverage, we apply the stain and then hand rub it into the wood. There are no machine shortcuts: elbow grease is the only way to coax the luster from stained wood.
TINTED VARNISH
The best way to describe Tinted Varnish is to say it gives cabinetry a paint-like finish. However, our Tinted Varnish is much more durable than paint. Throughout the country, this type of finish is also called “enamel” or “opaque”. Tinted Varnish is available on Maple, Oak and Quarter Sawn Oak cabinetry, and each wood yields a different look. The grain of Maple wood is concealed by Tinted Varnish and the grain of Oak and Quarter Sawn Oak shows through Tinted Varnish. Please note, when Tinted Varnish-based cabinet colors are specified, veneered center panels in doors are replaced with HDO material, and solid 3⁄8" reverse flat panels and solid 5⁄8" raised panels in doors are replaced with 100% MDF. These materials assure the best possible finish.
GLAZE
StarMark Cabinetry has four glaze colors: Chocolate, Ebony, Latté and Nickel. Glazes are available to layer over both stains and Tinted Varnishes. We apply the glaze by hand and then wipe it off by hand. When our craftsman wipes
off the glaze, he or she can best use the glaze
to define the details in that particular kitchen.
The profiles on a door and drawer, and other details on cabinetry, such as corbels, rosettes or shells, are stunning when glazed. We glaze every part of your cabinetry by hand—doors, drawers, moulding and panels.
