Many other refinishing companies skip the important first steps of the refinishing process to cut costs. These are the etch & epoxy primer steps. These refinishers choose to only clean the surface and wipe on a bonding agent to get the topcoat to adhere for a short period of time. Budget Refinishers thoroughly tested multiple processes and we have found that the etch and epoxy primer steps are necessary and essential steps to the final product. Removing these steps provides an increased profit for the refinisher, but a lower quality product for the customer. Another misstep is that your refinisher may use an inferior coating system or an over-the-counter kit. These inferior refinishing processes and systems do not ensure maximum adhesion of the coatings, therefore a finish that starts to fail in 6 months or less.
