Finish: We use an automotive type of finish that is a three step process which consists of special cleansers, special primers and a special paint called Imron, a Dupont product. This paint, a two-part polyurethane which ensures a durable hard finish, is used by manufacturers of custom automobile and airplane bodies. We go through this labor intensive process to ensure that you have a unique custom quality finish that will endure for years and years. Other exposed metal parts are either polished aluminum or polished bronze.
