Finish Resistance Tests
We use Sherwin-Williams Sher-Wood coatings for our finishing process. Sher-Wood Catalyzed Lacquer is used on all stained products & Sher-Wood Pigmented Conversion Varnish (also catalyzed) is used for painted products.
 
Sher-Wood Catalyzed Lacquer combines the toughness & chemical resistance of catalyzed varnishes & the depth & appearance properties associated with high quality nitrocellulose lacquer.
 
Sher-Wood Pigmented Conversion Varnish is a high solids catalyzed finishing system with full hiding opaque colors. It is a superior quality finish for kitchen cabinetry featuring excellent toughness & chemical resistance, mar resistance, moisture resistance, & good non-yellowing properties.
 
Both products meet the test requirements of the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association (KCMA). Below are results of chemical resistance tests from Sherwin-Williams.
