Rustic
Features variations in grain plus mineral streaks, heart-wood and open-surface knots that add visual variety and character.
Antique
The antique finish provides more of the “refinished” look where the old paint appears to have been removed but still lingers in the cracks and crevices. Available in white, pewter or brown, it is a seven step process using a solvent-based spray with a colored pigment.
Glaze
The glaze finish gives hardwood a more definitive and prominent appearance with white, pewter or brown highlights added to the open grain, and detail added to the doors and drawer heads. Glaze is an eight step process using a solvent-based spray with a colored pigment.
Vintage Paints (Available in Alder only)
Vintage Paint is a heavily pigmented paint finish with an enhancement that has a vintage appeal. After the paint finish is applied the look is created by sanding through the finish exposing wood to simulate the natural wearing of wood over years of use. The Vintage features are random and will not appear exactly the same on each cabinet. Not all products have the Vintage enhancement; products noted with N/A Vintage will come paint only. This finish is available on Alder wood products only and in select door styles. Please refer to your specification catalog. A disclaimer signed by your customer is required prior to your cabinet order being confirmed. Due to this "painted finish", Cabinetry by Karman makes no warranty regarding the possibility of separation or cracks in the finish at the joint lines.

Distressed
Distressed is a finish enhancement currently available on most alder and cherry solid wood doors (see Features and Options guide).
