- High Gloss - 90 Sheen
- Description
- This is a High Gloss lacquer. We do not rub it out with steel wool.
- Uses and Recommendations
- High Gloss lacquer should not be confused with "High Polish." High Gloss does not have the depth or clarity of High Polish
-
- High Polish
- Description
- This is our regular semi-gloss lacquer. After it is dry we wet sand it and then buff it up to a high sheen with a buffing wheel and rubbing compound.
- Uses and Recommendations
- This looks great on formal looking pieces such as our 3800 series.
-
- Semi-Gloss - 30-35 Sheen (Standard)
- Description
- This is our standard sheen. Tavern finishes are rubbed out with steel wool to a higher sheen than standard Bausman finishes.
- Uses and Recommendations
- We call our lacquer semi-gloss though typically a semi-gloss is between a 40-60 sheen. Though we spray 30-35 sheen the gloss can be increased by the rubbing out process. Often referred to as “Satin” though satin may be considered between 20-25 sheen.
-
- Dull Rub - 02 Sheen Rubbed Out
- Description
- Because we hand rub out our finishes with steel wool and wax, we can increase the sheen. We found that by rubbing out a 02 matte lacquer we can achieve a sheen that may be considered around 20. This falls between our standard lacquer and matte (Dead Flat).
- Uses and Recommendations
- This is a very nice look for country pieces. And often painted finishes
-
-
- Matte - 02 Sheen
-
- Description
- This is often referred to as “Dead Flat."
- Uses and Recommendations
- To avoid any sheen build-up, we do not rub out the matte finish.
