Medallion Cabinetry introduces custom colors
Have you ever wished you could have a lavender hutch? Even better, would you like that lavender hutch to be Sherwin-Williams 6548 Grape Mist? How about Benjamin Moore 2072-60 Beach Plum? Or maybe you're a Pantone person and you're looking for PMS 257. What ever the source, Medallion Cabinetry can simulate that color as a painted finish .
It used to be that if you had a need for a special paint color on cabinetry, you'd order the cabinetry unfinished and then have it painted in the field. This method would sometimes get you where you wanted to be but just as often would leave you with something less than what you were expecting.
Medallion Cabinetry's new Expressions custom paint coloration manner takes away the wager paintings and leaves you with a multi-step, catalytic paint a good way to look awesome and get up to ordinary wear and tear a ways better than paint from a can ever may want to.
How it works is pretty straightforward. A client sends a paint swatch or 3" x 3" painted wood chip to Medallion. Upon receipt, Medallion will analyze the sample with a spectrophotometer and it will then generate a formula for that particular color. Once they establish a color formula, they then mix up a test batch of the custom paint and prepare a sample. The sample goes through the typical stages of finishing (sanding, priming, painting, oven curing, top coating and oven curing again) only in a paint booth and curing oven dedicated to the Expressions program. At the end of that process is a full-size sample cabinet door.
The pattern's compared to the authentic swatch and if it's a good in shape the pattern door gets reduce in 1/2. One half of sample goes back to the patron for approval and the alternative half of remains with Medallion.
Upon sample approval, the cabinetry goes into production. When the completed cabinetry ships a few weeks later, Medallion will cut its remaining half sample in half again and ship a quarter of the originally-approved sample with the order.
It's a quite slick program and the charges involved are affordable. Painted finishes are constantly a premium, and the custom Expressions program comes in at 10% higher than a stock paint coloration. Standard painted finishes price an additional 14% on plywood built cabinets and 18% on furnishings board production. For Expressions custom shade, the surcharge is 20% on plywood production and 24% on fixtures board production. The benefit to approaching custom shade this way is in the end result of course. Having cabinetry painted within the field will price approximately the same amount of cash however there is not a area-carried out paint obtainable than can evaluate with a multi-step, oven-cured catalytic paint when it comes to sturdiness and resilience.
Medallion Cabinetry's sold all over the US and theirs is a product I've been selling proudly for the closing 5 years of my existence.
