A decorative panel having areas of different light reflecting characteristics is manufactured by inhibiting the curing of selected areas of a resinous top coat material which is applied to a panel substrate. In one technique a curing inhibitor is applied to selected areas of the substrate surface prior to application, over the entire surface, of a top coat material containing a mixture of an alkyd resin with melamine-formaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde or a mixture thereof. Upon curing, the inhibitor treated areas cure more slowly than the untreated areas and are characterized by a roughened, diffusely reflecting surface contrasting with the untreated areas having a smooth reflecting surface.
