pre-finishing
Factory pre-finishing is a hallmark of Sun Mountain. Our pre-finishing experience began over 25 years ago, and our finishes are renowned in the door and flooring industries. We offer the highest quality factory-applied stains, glazes, and topcoats—available in our standard color options or custom color matched to your specifications. Our pre-finishes are "fine furniture" quality, providing much higher quality and lower cost than on-site painting. And our pre-finished products are ready to install, further adding value by reducing time and scheduling in the construction process. A summary of our pre-finishing strengths includes:
- A minimum of 30 minutes per door hand-sanding—ensuring grain closure and perfect preparation prior to finishing
- Top quality catalyzed conversion and UV (Ultra-Violet) varnish systems (similar to high-end pre-finished cabinets and fine furniture)
- Proprietary stain formulas created specifically for our environment and applied using HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) and air-assisted spray guns—ensuring even tones with no blotchiness
- A "clean room", dust-free environment not achievable on the jobsite—preventing small dust and dirt particles from settling on the product before drying
- Six-sided coating, providing moisture seal on all sides, preventing product warping. Our door warranty increases from one year to five years on our pre-finished options
- Expert artisans providing a broad selection of unique, high-end finishes including antiquing, glazing, crackling, highlighting, shadowing, etc.
- Custom color and texture matching—perfectly matching your unique design and style
- Lower cost than on-site painting
