Whether you love the deep charm of black walnut, the rough charm of recycled elm, or the fashionable charm of epoxy riverbed large oak dining table, the surface treatment method determines how your furniture complements the space.
At Tucker, every detail matters. Our solid wood desktop is treated with oily polyurethane, which has durability, warmth, and rich and eternal luster. At the same time, our large oak riverbed dining table is treated with ultraviolet light to obtain excellent protection and lasting brightness. Knowing the difference between these two surface treatments-and how they compare with water-based options-can help you choose the right furniture for your home.
1. Why is it important to choose a suitable surface treatment process?
Surface treatment is not only a protective coating-it is the key to giving your large oak dining table vitality. Proper surface treatment can improve the natural texture of wood, prevent daily wear and tear, and ensure that your dining table remains beautiful for many years.
Influence of surface treatment:
Color and hue of wood
The level of gloss or matte
Scratch resistance and moisture resistance
The overall style and touch of the large oak dining table
Even a slight difference in surface treatment may completely change the personality of the dining table.
2. Water-based paint surface: modern pure beauty
Waterborne paint is famous for its clean and clear appearance. They can keep the natural color of wood and are often used in modern interior decoration. Advantages:
Maintain a natural, light color without yellowing.
Light smell, environmental protection, and low content of volatile organic compounds.
It dries quickly and is very suitable for quick repair projects.
Applicable people: people who like simple and modern style and have low requirements for color improvement.
However, because water-based paints tend to stay on the surface rather than penetrate deeply, they may sometimes provide a little less warmth and durability than oily paints-so they are not suitable for large tables that are often used.
3. Oily topcoat: depth, warmth, and durability
In Talko Company, all our solid wood tabletops-including walnut, oak, and recycled elm-are finished with oily polyurethane, which gives consideration to aesthetics and practicality.
The reason why we chose it:
Rich color enhancement effect: highlights the natural texture and adds depth to the color of the wood.
Durable protection: from a solid and durable surface, which can resist scratches, high temperatures, and humidity.
Warm and eternal attraction: very suitable for highlighting the natural beauty of solid wood.
This kind of topcoat will form a soft amber tone with the passage of time, which will make every large oak dining table show a rich and attractive light and a beautiful, mature effect. For those who pursue both durability and elegance, this is a classic choice.
4. Epoxy river view desktop: treated with ultraviolet curing coating.
Our epoxy river view desktop is treated differently. Because the epoxy surface itself has a high gloss and glass-like appearance, we use ultraviolet coating instead of polyurethane coating.
Benefits of UV coating: It can effectively prevent fading and yellowing caused by sunlight.
High gloss transparency makes epoxy look smooth and modern.
Durable surface, resistant to scratches and stains.
This treatment can ensure that your epoxy river view desktop can maintain its amazing clarity and gloss even in bright or open environments.
Concluding remarks
Choosing a suitable surface treatment method lies in balancing aesthetics, protection, and individuality. At Talbot, every product is designed to fully show the best characteristics of its material-whether it is the deep luster of oily polyurethane on walnut, the rustic strength of recycled elm, or the bright luster of epoxy resin on a large oak dining table treated with ultraviolet coating.
