The finishing machine of the present invention includes a drive assembly for moving a coated object longitudinally across a base at a predetermined speed and a finishing assembly connected to the base to contact at least a portion of the coating as the object moves across the base to raise the temperature of the coating to about its thermoplastic range for a predetermined time and to finish the coating during that time to a desired uniform finish. The finishing assembly includes a revolving brush having nylon bristles impregnated with a suitable abrasive. For moldings, the brush is mounted to a frame which is adjustable above the base to vary the height of the brush above the base and its angle with respect to the base. Edge finishing brushes may also be included on the base for finishing edges of the object as it passes through the machine. The method and apparatus are suitable for small objects, such as moldings, or large objects, such as doors. Large objects float between horizontally spaced, vertical brushes for uniform application of pressure.
