Unveiling the Power of Vibrant Stains

Your facility’s sports floor plays a crucial role in setting the tone and ambiance for the games and activities that take place within its walls. While traditional wood flooring offers a classic and timeless appeal, stained finishes open up a world of possibilities to transform your sports court into a vibrant and eye-catching space.

A Spectrum of Colors to Enhance Your Sports Arena

With stain, you’re not limited to the natural hues of wood. Instead, you have a vast palette of colors at your fingertips, from fiery reds and energetic oranges to calming blues and regal purples. Imagine the thrill of stepping onto a basketball court stained in a bold shade of red, or the excitement of competing on a volleyball court adorned in a vibrant blue!

The Impact of Oil and Water-Based Finishes on Color Appearance

The type of finish you choose for your stained sports floor will significantly impact the appearance of the colors. Especially as the floor ages. As you can see in our stain examples above, oil-based finishes tend to impart a warm, amber hue to the colors, enhancing the natural depth and richness of the wood. This can be particularly appealing for darker colors like reds and browns.

Water-based finishes, on the other hand, preserve the original vibrancy of the colors, allowing them to shine without any yellowing or darkening over time. This is an excellent choice for showcasing the true brilliance of lighter colors like blues and greens.

Choosing the Right Finish for Your Sports Facility

The decision between an oil-based or water-based finish ultimately depends on your specific preferences and the desired aesthetic for your sports facility. If you prefer a warm, traditional look, an oil-based finish could be the perfect fit. However, if you want to showcase the colors in their purest form and ensure long-lasting vibrancy, a water-based finish is the way to go.

Whichever stain choice you choose, with our wide range of colors to choose from, you can create a sports floor that reflects your team’s spirit and inspires athletes to achieve their best.
