<p>A process and machine are provided to manufacture furniture parts and the like with a durable, low gloss finish which has a soft, satin feel, and imparts a monolithic appearance to the part. A blank cut from a suitable substrate material is formed with a groove (3) about its marginal edge to a depth near the opposite surface of the blank. A liquid edge protection material (4) is poured into the groove and fully cured. The blank is then cut through at the filled groove to create a decorative protective strip (5) about the marginal edge of the blank. The formed blank is next coated with a selected paint or base material (7). After the base coat is cured, a layer of UV curable, protective material (8) is applied to the painted surfaces of the blank. The UV coated blank is then translated through a multi-stage, continuous feed, ultra-violet processor to selectively and sequentially cure the protective coat.</p> |
