Specifications

Common Uses

Installed as an accent band between larger moulding profiles or as a standalone detail strip. Oak is the premium choice for stained moulding. For a glass-smooth painted finish on oak, apply grain filler first -- the open pores telegraph through paint without filling.

Pro Tips

• Burlap trim is typically used in combination with other profiles -- as a band below a shelf, a transition between wall and wainscoting, or a detail accent on a custom door surround.
• For stain: oak accepts stain beautifully -- apply with the grain and wipe off excess. For paint: apply grain filler first, then prime and paint. For clear finish: sand to 220-grit and apply oil or polyurethane.
• The small profile nails easily with a brad nailer. Use 1" to 1-1/4" brads.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is burlap trim used for?
Burlap is a small accent profile used to add detail bands and transitions within larger trim assemblies. It is a decorative accent, not a structural or functional trim.

Should I stain or paint oak moulding?
Oak is at its best when stained or clear-finished -- the prominent grain adds warmth and character. Painting oak is possible but requires grain filler for a smooth result, and many consider it a waste of a premium material.
