Though pre-finished accessories are our expertise, sometimes a custom, on-site stain job is required, and unfinished moldings are an option.*  Note that any unfinished products purchased from Artistic Finishes will still need to be lightly sanded before applying stain and top coat. 

*Not all profiles and species are available unfinished. Contact customer service if you have questions about a specific specie or profile, (651) 631-2807
