The Durata® permanent finish is our recommended finish for non-chopping applications and low maintenance applications. The finish is excellent for high wear, commercial applications such as bars and tables. This finish is composed of a special sealer washcoat top and bottom to seal the wood. That coat is followed by a polyester seal coat for physical toughness and hardness. The final finish coat is a catalyzed polyurethane for scratch resistance and chemical resistance. This finish has received the highest possible rating for durability from ASTM International, a worldwide standard setting organization. This finish is completely resistance to water or chemical penetration. Very hard solvents such as lacquer thinner or alcohol will not affect this finish. Once fully cured this finish is highly resistant to scratching. This finish is approved for FDA indirect exposure (ie. Kneading dough), but not chopping. Chopping applications should be avoided. Available in a 35 sheen (satin).
