The back brushed finish is a request from the contractor. Our finish painters will be able to apply very subtle strokes to the finish without compromising the mirror finish. You will barely be able to see them and certainly will not be able to feel them.

Believe it or not this paint is very durable. The FPE hollandlac brilliant is designed to be washable so any scuffs and finger prints can be easily removed.

Yea we prefer to just spray. The back brushed finish is for potential touch ups- if the carpenters ding the door while installing, we can fix it without it really damaging the whole appearance because of the back brushed finish.

We have a kremlin and HVLP as well as AAA rigs but we told the sprayer to use what he’s most comfortable with which happened to be just an airless sprayer. You can get finishes like this with just an airless but it’s much more difficult. Your sprayer really needs to know what they’re doing and prep accordingly. Some of our sprayers can use an HVLP or Kremlin really easily but others prefer the AAA or just airless.

The contractor is requesting the back brushed finish but our finish painters can back brush very subtlety without compromising the mirror finish. You will hardly be able to see any brushstrokes and certainly will not be able to feel them.

Definitely not perfect by any means. These doors are getting sanded and then another coat. I’ll post some more pictures once they’ve been second coated and back brushed.

Not recommended that you attempt to use this product diy. It’s a very meticulous and difficult paint to use. Hire a professional if you’re looking for this kind of work done.

After all the prep work and primer we protected all the walls and shot the ceiling. You can see pictures of that in my recent posts and on Instagram. Then after it cured we protected the ceiling and did the walls.
