Black Glaze is applied over another Bishop paint or stain rather than replacing the base finish.
Black Glaze
Black Glaze is a specialty finish option Bishop applies over selected paints and stains. The glaze settles into details and edges, adding contrast rather than acting as a stand-alone cabinet color.
ApplicationAvailable on a variety of paints and stains; final combination must be confirmed.

The darker glaze can make profiles, corners, and decorative detail read more strongly.
Bishop directs customers to a dealer to confirm which paint/stain combinations are available.
About this finish
A dark accent layer that changes the character of the base finish.
Bishop currently shows Black Glaze over multiple base finishes, including Putty paint, Driftwood stain, Natural stain, and other wood finishes. That is the key to understanding this option: the result depends on what sits underneath it.
Because glaze is a combination finish, Bates Cabinetry should verify the exact base color, species, door profile, and availability before the order is finalized.
