Piax has been dedicated to woodworking finishes for 60 years, with a proven track record of painting over 80 types of wood and a vast accumulation of know-how. Wood has its own characteristics, such as deep vessels depending on the species, high resin content, and oiliness. While manuals can be applied to artificial materials (like resin and metal), achieving a beautiful finish on wood requires painting methods and processes tailored to each species. Additionally, the amount of moisture contained in the wood affects the penetration of the paint and the quality of the finish, significantly impacting the durability of the coating. Taking into account our clients' requests, we strive daily to refine our techniques in order to provide the highest quality finishes both aesthetically and functionally. Please feel free to contact us for consultations or requests for estimates regarding painting.

  This is a sample for checking the color shades using the same materials as the actual production. In the case of wood grain finishing, the natural color of the wood significantly affects the final color, so it is essential to provide the same materials as the actual production to create the painting sample.

  This is a sample created based on the request to make the color of the walnut veneer a reddish-black. It has been colored with a sealing compound mixed with pigments (brown, red, black), and the color matching is done with a topcoat. This is also a painting sample using the same veneer as the final product. Adjustments will continue until it matches the designer's vision.

  This is a sample that encapsulates washi paper within a polyester mirror finish. Since the washi paper becomes tinted due to the paint, selecting the right washi paper is very important. Even clear polyester paint has a slight color, so it is not possible to achieve a 100% true color of the washi paper. We explain to clients that there may be a slight yellowing (including aging changes) and ask them to choose the washi paper accordingly.

  The most requested type of paint sample is one for checking color and gloss. This photo shows a paint sample for a kitchen using two shades of blue. While it can be made in a size of about 10cm square, it is preferable to have a larger size, around A4, due to the influence of color area effect. The color area effect refers to the phenomenon where the same color appears to have increasing saturation and brightness as the area increases. When deciding on a color with a small sample and then applying it to a large wall, it can sometimes turn out to be more vibrant than expected, leading to mistakes.
