1.2.4. Finish
Just as in the making of a great musical instrument, the finish
has also an influence on the outcome. Because of the highly
sophisticated cabinet shape, all the processes in the finishing stage are
hand-made with extreme care by highly experienced specialists using
the best technology and procedures. After casting the proprietary
marble-based composite, it is allowed to age. Then the preparation of
the surface of the cabinet commences by hand sanding and by sealing
layer upon layer through an elaborate and time-consuming procedure.
Finally, the multiple coats of the lacquer finish are applied along with
the final polishing to a mirror-like finish. The Estelon YB Mk II is offered
in a choice of liquid gloss, matte, or the optional premium finishes.
