Abstract
The present disclosure describes a stainable finish foil, and methods of preparing a stainable finish foil, with a two-layer top coating to provide a “multi-dimensional” staining effect that more-closely mimics the grain appearance of solid wood veneer or solid wood. When designed for use with water-based stains, the top coating typically includes wetting agents to provide a contact angle of 90° or less.

A stainable finish foil material, comprising:
- a finish foil sheet;
- and
- a stainable topcoat layer applied and affixed to the finish foil sheet,
- wherein the stainable topcoat layer comprises two coatings comprising:
- a first coating with a high proportion of soft minerals and a pigment volume concentration (PVC) of above 35%, and
- a second coating with a different blend of soft minerals than the first coating and a second pigment volume concentration (PVC2) of greater than 40%.
