What is the solid surface effect finish?

The Solid Surface Effect Finish is a coating that reproduces the appearance of homogeneous solid surfaces (Corian® type): compact, uniform, free of porosity, with a soft touch and a monolithic appearance.

Unlike real solid surfaces, the painted finish is distinguished by:

  • Applicability on existing supports — MDF, wood, plastic
  • Lower cost — compared to solid surface materials
  • Absolute uniformity — surface without joints or porosity
  • Soft touch — Velvety feeling on contact
  • Customizable colors — Any Shade on Sample

Cycle: preparation → primer → compact build-up → solid surface finish → protective transparent.
