PICK A COLOR, ANY COLOR • Free Samples • Flow Coat Application • Oven Dried • Cabot Factory Finish Stain • Unlimited Choice of Colors • No Minimum Order The Cabot Factory Finish Process 3 2 4 1 Controlled temperature and humidity levels stabilize any moisture in the wood; application conditions are optimal. 2 The siding is fed into the machine applicator and flooded with Cabot Factory Finish. 3 Pressure rollers spread the coating evenly. 4 High speed brushes drive the stain into all six sides of the wood for maximum protection. Back-priming reduces shrinking and swelling and improves the siding durability. 5 Proper spread rates and uniform colour coverage provide a beautiful finish with the highest outdoor performance standards. The longevity and performance of any coating is greatly influenced by the method of application. Cabot Factory Finish is applied under factory-controlled conditions and the most stringent quality control procedures are followed. All six sides of the board, including the butt-ends, are completely covered ensuring the ultimate protection from nature’s elements. The stain is then brushed deep into the surface for maxi-mum penetration and is allowed to dry thoroughly prior to leaving the factory, stabilizing the siding and preventing possible shrinkage. The finished siding arrives at the construction site totally protected from exposure to water and sunlight.
