FINISH TECHNIQUES
– Wellborn has several Finish Techniques that create different levels of worn appearances. Each piece on the
cabinet will vary in the amount of level and appearance in each effect creating a randomness of appearance. Techniques will be applied
to doors and drawer fronts. Overlay face frames and fillers do not receive finish techniques. Inset face frames and fillers receive finish
technques. Moulding 1¼” wide and larger will receive finish techniques. Plywood parts do not receive finish techniques. Parts such
as stiles on end panels will not receive finish techniques. For veneer door styles, Milan and Barcelona will only receive Cottage and
SeaSide finish techniques. Door styles with veneer center panels (Bali and Essex) will only be available with Cottage, SeaSide and
Vintage techniques. Some specialty accessories like Furniture Bookcases, Open Display Cabinets and Bookcases will receive these
effects. Many small mouldings will not receive Finish Techniques. The Finish Techniques will vary within individual doors; therefore,
no two doors will be alike throughout the entire kitchen. For your convenience, any exclusions are notated throughout the catalog.
The Heirloom Technique is available on doors, drawer fronts, the face frames of Open Display Cabinets and Bookcases and specified
mouldings. All other face frames and accessories will not receive this technique. These features are acceptable with the Heirloom
Technique and are not considered defects. Therefore, these features are not covered under warranty.
All doors with a flat center panel will not receive the Vintage technique on the center panel. The worn edges will vary within
individual doors and throughout the entire kitchen. These features are acceptable with the Vintage Technique and are not
considered defects. Therefore, these features are not covered under warranty.
