What is a Glaze?
Add the impression of natural aging to your cabinetry creation with Showplace glazes—for no additional charge.
This extra step in the finish process applies a pigment which is then hand-wiped partially away. The pigment collects, or “hangs up,” to visually highlight areas of detail while flat surfaces are wiped clean.
Glaze is available on painted and stained cabinets. See a Showplace dealer to help incorporate free glazing in your cabinet design!

Should I glaze my cabinets?
Handcrafted glazing adds distinction and character to stained or painted cabinetry. And, unlike most brands, Showplace does not charge extra for glazes. Take your pick from six tones of hand-applied glazing on almost any paint or stain, for free.
Glazing is a great way to bring out the detail in intricately carved cabinets, doors, and drawer fronts. Pull your whole look together with glazed accents, molding, or focal points such as wainscoting, kitchen carts, and pantries.
See glaze choices below, available at no extra charge.

Bear in mind that variability is one of wood's finest natural qualities, and actual glazes will differ. Computer displays also add their own interpretation to colors. Please make your glaze selection based on actual glazed samples at your Showplace dealer.
