IDC's WOOD FINISHES for CUSTOM WOOD GARAGE DOORS
Beautiful | Long Lasting | Easy to Maintain
Finish Color Shown: Natural
IDC's exclusive four part wood garage door finishes are specifically designed to offer the beauty of a furniture-quality finish with the most technologically advanced and environmentally sensitive sealants in the industry.
Our wood finish offers the best combination of range of colors, durability of finish and ease of maintenance. Superior elasticity allows our wood garage door finish to flex with the wood's natural expansion and contraction due to changes in humidity and temperature.
Beautiful, long lasting and easy to maintain, IDC's wood finishes will enhance and protect your custom wood garage doors for years to come. For more information on IDC's wood finishes for custom garage doors, please contact your IDC representative today!The IDC Wood Finishing Process
The photos below show, step-by-step, what goes into every door we finish. The door used for this sequence features an optional distressed finish for an Old World look.

NATURAL STATE
Sample shown in natural state. (Optional distress marks are visible.)
______________________________
FIRST LAYER: HAND-RUBBED STAIN
We use hand-rubbed interior stains (see Color Selection below) that penetrate the surface slightly and offering us more color control to custom match stain colors.
______________________________
SECOND & THIRD LAYERS: CATALYZED SEAL COATS
Two layers of a proprietary catalyzed seal coat that offer exceptional adhesion and chemical resistance. This formula was specifically designed for exterior wood surfaces that are exposed to moisture, heat and chemicals, offering a coating that is nearly impervious to the elements. Notice that the color is slightly lighter as these coats begin to add UV protection that reflects light back from the face of the door.
_____________________________
FOURTH: EXTERIOR POLYURETHANE
For the final coats, we apply a high performance, two-component satin polyurethane for a very hard, long-lasting finish. This provides an excellent (high solids) finish that is scratch and mar resistant and provides excellent moisture resistance.

*NOTE: Darker stains absorb heat which will degrade your door's wood overlay, potentially causing cracks and premature finish failure. We recommend using darker stains only on north facing or heavily shaded garage doors.

*IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
Wood is a natural product and DOES require periodic maintenance, even with the most advanced finishes like IDC's.. Your doors' maintenance schedule will vary depending on exposure to sunlight and water. All finishes are designed to wear off over time (the rate varying by manufacturer) so we recommend visually examining your doors every year, looking for signs of wear (especially the bottom section) and applying a maintenance coat when needed.
