Abstract
Disclosed is a method for treating a grained material. A nonlimiting example of the method includes the operations of providing a workpiece having grains, exasperating a surface of the workpiece to open the grains, applying at least one coat of a base paint to the exasperated surface, applying at least one layer of clear coat on the base paint, applying at least one of a glaze and a paint on the clear coat, and surface treating to reveal grains of the workpiece. Disclosed also are items of furniture and sheet materials treated by the aforementioned process.
Claims18
A method of treating a surface comprising:
- providing a workpiece having a grained surface, the grained surface having grain portions and non-grain portions;
- exasperating the grained surface thereby increasing recess surface contours in one or more dimensions of the grain portions;
- applying a base paint to the exasperated grained surface of the workpiece;
- applying a cover paint over the base paint;
- wherein the cover paint is darker than the base paint;
- working the cover paint into the recessed surface contours of the grain portions of the exasperated grained surface of the workpiece;
- after the cover paint is completely dry, treating the grained surface of the workpiece having the base paint on the grained surface and the cover paint over the base paint to expose portions of the base paint covering the non-grained portions while simultaneously exposing the cover paint held within the recessed surface contours of the grain portions;
- and
- applying a sealing layer over the cover paint which is over the base paint.

A method of treating a surface, comprising:
- providing a workpiece having a grained surface, the grained surface having grain portions and non-grain portions;
- exasperating the grained surface thereby increasing recess surface contours in one or more directions of the grain portions;
- applying a base paint to the exasperated grained surface of the workpiece;
- applying a cover paint over the base paint;
- wherein the cover paint is darker than the base paint;
- working the cover paint into the recessed surface contours of the grain portions of the exasperated grained surface of the workpiece;
- after the cover paint is dry, treating the grained surface of the workpiece having the base paint on the grained surface and the cover paint over the base paint to expose portions of the base paint covering the non-grained portions while simultaneously exposing the cover paint held within the recessed surface contours of the grain portions;
- and
- applying a sealing layer over the cover paint which is over the base paint applying one or more layers of a clear coat over the base paint prior to applying the cover paint.
