Durable Polyurethane Finish [No Epoxy]
Thursday, November 1, 2012
Although our beautiful epoxy/matte polyurethane finish most efficiently combines practicality with artistic uniqueness, it may not always be the best solution for you.
Eliminating the epoxy process from finishing will make your table more difficult to clean and less waterproof.. but you will feel the grooves and character more [as they won’t be filled]. Some of our customers really want to feel and touch the original distressing, as opposed to seeing it through a thick epoxy finish.
If this is the route you’d like to go with your reclaimed wood table, we can accommodate. Throughout the whole process, we keep in mind what the final finish will be. For someone who decides to do a polyurethane finish without the epoxy filling; we start with flatter boards and avoid extreme hacks and holes. The main goal is to maximize original distressing without making the top too uneven (so that your plates don’t sit flat) or impossible to clean.Â
Check out this beautiful reclaimed wood table we made for Bob Munroe of Ancaster, Ontario. I’ve included the testimonial he provided as well:
“Shortly after moving into our new home, I did an internet search for rustic, wood dining tables. In the results was a link to HD Threshing Floor Furniture. As I clicked through the photos on their site, I knew that I had found a company that not only understood quality furniture design (from reclaimed wood nonetheless – how great is that!), but also had very reasonable prices.
Even though I could have easily ordered directly from the website, I was happy to discover that HD Threshing was only a thirty minute drive from our house. We therefore decided to visit their showroom. The furniture on display was as stunning in person as in the photos on their site. We spoke with HD Threshing about various options in terms of style, size and finish. Within fifteen minutes, we had decided on exactly what we wanted and placed our order. The process was personal, simple and satisfying.
The table, and the matching bench that we ordered after the fact, were delivered on time. That following weekend, we had twelve guests join us for a large family meal. Everyone raved about the table, from how gorgeous it looks to the provenance of the material used to build it. Every visitor to our home tells us what we already know – that the table is a beautiful showpiece that has transformed our dining space.” -Bob Munroe, Ancaster, ON
