- Why Minwax? Minwax is available nationally. You
should visit your local hardware store, and look at
the MINWAX wood samples on display. Pick the color
that best meets your needs.
- Do not use your web monitor for color matching.
Monitors vary widely in how they show colors.
- We apply two coats of stain and sand your gate
before applying wipe-on polyurethane clear coats for
durability.
- Available in satin sheen only. If you want
greater sheen, you may use a spray polyurethane
(we recommend Helms or Minwax spray "Fast Dry" polyurethane), or use Minwax Wipe-On Polyurethane in
Clear Gloss. These are virtually fool-proof to
apply, and inexpensive. Once your gate arrives, you
should buff it with steel wool (000 or 0000) before
applying a high-gloss finish.
White Gate Finishes
- Pickled White Stained finishes, which are nearly
opaque, are available to all customers. The wood
looks like it is painted, except a small bit of
graining still shows. We use a dense white
stain to deeply penetrate the wood. You get a
bright white look while still preserving the grain,
for a more attractive finish.
- We do offer painted white spindles or slats, if
the rest of the gate is stained (small surcharge
applies)
- Completely painted white finishes are available to customers in our
gate local delivery area only.
Need a custom tint to
match your cabinets or molding?
- Custom stain/tint matching is available. Send us a
wood chip at least 3" in length on one side, and
we'll stain your gate to match.
- For $12 we will send you back a piece of gate
wood, tinted to match your sample. You can then tell
us to proceed or not proceed with your order.
Exterior Gate Finishes (Available after Christmas 2009)
- Exterior gates are pressure-treated lumber. They
will turn a weathered grey naturally. We do not seal
them as it is not necessary, but you may, at your
option, seal them once you receive the gates.
- We also, for an extra fee, will sell these gates
in selected CABOT exterior stains, with waterproof
sealant. Details to follow.
