Debunking Common Myths About Painted & Distressed Hardwood

 

Myth 1: Painted hardwood is too fragile.
False. The finish on the Coastal Art II collection uses Luster-Lock Ultra, which is engineered for durability and easy maintenance.

Myth 2: Engineered hardwood is cheap.
Engineered means stability, not low quality. It’s actually more practical for modern homes due to its resistance to moisture and temperature changes.

Myth 3: Distressed wood looks fake.
The distressing here is hand-applied and subtle. It adds character, not cartoonish marks.
