Polishing & Refinishing

French polish, PU, melamine and matte lacquer — stripped back and reapplied in a dust-controlled booth.

Polishing & Refinishing

About this service

Refinishing is mostly preparation. We strip the old coating completely rather than sanding lightly and coating over it, because a new finish over a failing one fails just as fast. Stripping, staining and sealing all happen in a dust-controlled booth so the surface cures clean.

We match the existing colour when you are refinishing one piece of a set, and we will show you a sample on an offcut before committing to the whole item.
