At Simmonds Polishing we understand that not every job you give us
needs to be finished perfectly. Whilst the majority of the kitchens we paint
are subject to intense scrutiny by home owners, it is very different for the joinery installed into a retail
shop.
To this end we have a number of different levels of finish
available to suit the individual needs of each client. At all times, we use
only the best quality materials available on the market, but how we go about
applying those quality materials can vary.
In short, we offer three levels of
finish to the commercial joinery industry.
1. Top quality
2. Commercial quality
3. Industrial quality
Top quality is exactly what it says;
every aspect of the application is monitored and subjected to the greatest care
in application and quality control. The final result is a perfect flat finish
with no imperfections.
Commercial quality is our most popular
finish for the commercial joinery industry; whilst we use the same quality
materials as for the top quality finishing, the application of those materials
is a little less regulated. As the majority of this joinery is either high up
on the ceiling or else covered in stock there is not normally a need for a perfect
blemish free finish. This finish is distinguishable by the odd spot of dust in
the surface and a more orange peel look to the paint. Again, let us emphasise
we still use the same top quality material. It is just the application of those
lacquers is a little less regulated.
Our industrial quality finish is for
items of joinery that are positioned away from prying eyes. We use less
undercoat and less top coat on this joinery. On inspection, it will look like
the joinery has only a thin coat of lacquer, rather than that high build thick
look that is typical of our other two finishes. Typically, this style of
painting could be used on such things as ceiling panels, or Joinery that is
over 3 meters in the air. Ideally in a position where no light can reflect off
the joinery and therefore won’t show up the inferior film build thickness.
Again, we still use the same top-quality materials as for any other painting
method. It is just we use less of it and apply in more quickly.
As we keep telling all of our valuable
clients, we are here to meet your individual needs. If you would like to
discuss differing qualities of finish for your next project please feel free to
call us at any time.
