Durable, scratch-resistant finish.

PATINA

Powder-coated paint base with a handpainted patina finish applied with an irregular brush and covering app. 40% of the surface.

RUSTIC

We apply our colors according to a traditional patina method which involves hand-wiping in irregular strokes over a coat of baked paint. This handcrafted method allows for a natural variations from one baluster to the next for a beautifully authentic effect.

EXTERIOR PAINT (NX)

The metal is zinc plated to resist corrosion, then finished with electrostatic paint for a glossy sheen.
