Gloss telegraphs substrate flatness
The problem
Any sheen above satin reveals every imperfection in the panel beneath it, and grazing light makes it unmissable.
What ELS does
Put sheen above satin only on balanced-construction panel, and never where light grazes along the run.
Why it works
Gloss is a mirror. It reports the substrate, not the finish.
Written for planning, not construction. Confirm every dimension against your approved project drawings.

Material behaviour
Tall doors need balanced construction
Entry-grade fronts arrive flat and go out of flat as the board takes up moisture.
Material behaviourCream is a match, not a colour name
The lacquer door, the quartz top and the wall paint will not agree across three suppliers — each reads 'cream' differently.
Material behaviourDeclare one grain direction per run
Adjacent doors read as different products once side-lit, even from the same batch.
