What is High Gloss Furniture?
This is a new fashion trend in contemporary homes, encompassing any piece of furniture with a shiny and highly reflective finish. Imagine a grand piano with its jet black, super smooth, polished finish. It looks stunning. Now imagine replicating this look with just about any type of furniture - from sleek white bathroom cabinets, to glossy hi-tech AV furniture, to elegant fitted wardrobes in the bedroom. It creates a fabulous contemporary look in any modern house or apartment.

However, it's extremely difficult to create high gloss furniture in a DIY capacity, so you'll need to see a specialist vendor that has the right tools and techniques to create the perfect finish. Most commercial finishes are lacquer based, involving an expensive spray and a way to flash cure the finish. Piano finishes in particular are lacquered then rubbed and polished to a high sheen. A lot of technology and effort goes into creating that slick gloss finish - and it is worth the effort!
