Wood-Mode craftspeople perform a painstaking hand-rubbing process. It’s a unique procedure that has been developed over the last half century, a technique that has made them America’s most respected custom cabinet manufacturer.
Many steps are involved: fine hand-sanding of the topcoat; rubbing with fine steel wool; a hand application of paste wax; and finally, a hand buffing to create the smoothest, richest patina imaginable.
In addition to our wide array of standard wood finishes, we can also customize colors to match your décor. This means no Wood-Mode color or finish ever becomes obsolete. Discontinued finishes can be reproduced, so you can always color match additional cabinetry, even after decades have gone by.
Finally, Wood-Mode offers an exciting selection of gloss or matte finish laminates and opaque finishes in a palette of over 50 colors. You can even blend wood with laminates and opaques to satisfy your personal tastes.

Wood-Mode starts with a deep-penetrating stain. Over this they apply a baked-on sealer and catalytic varnish-for a protective barrier up to 60% deeper than other manufacturers’. Finally they hand-buff the surface. The result? A satiny-smooth, easy-to-clean finish that brings out all the beauty of the wood grain and provides superior protection against scratches, stains, and household chemicals.
