Application Methods:
Holiday Kitchens uses multiple stain formulas and application methods, which are unique by wood specie and reveal the hidden beauty of the individual wood specie. This level of investment and expertise is unique in our industry.
Wipe Stain: A deep penetrating, alkyd base stain is hand-wiped to reveal the hidden beauty of the wood, wiped to work into the grain.
Pre-Stain, Wipe Stain: Some darker colors utilize a pre-stain operation prior to the hand-wiped stain process. This gives you a uniform finish with depth and beauty. Stains are evenly hand rubbed and wiped clean to reveal the natural highlights.
Multi-Step Finishes: Multiple finish applications provides vibrant color depth, resulting in a majestic appearance. Many old-world finishes are created by this process.
Spray/No-Wipe Stains: Non-penetrating pigmented stains which create a contemporary, uniform finish.
