Which material should be used for a better finish between Polyurethane and Laminex?
As with every other material, polyurethane, and Laminex, both have their pros and cons. The purpose of your kitchen along with the looks you want decides which one is best for you.
Polyurethane: For a sleek look, just throw some shark nose handles with a polyurethane finish. It offers a minimalistic approach with a vast color range. Depending on your personality, choose from either a saying or a gloss finish. But beware of the cautious handling that comes with polyurethane. A single chip will require the replacement of the complete door.
Laminex: Rich in texture and color, Laminex is ultra-durable and low maintenance. It scratches easily but rarely chips, which is less noticeable.
Note that polyurethane is a choice of a majority of customers as it looks better and they resolve to take proper care of their interior. But if you are planning to rent your home then Laminex might be a clever choice as the tenants tend to follow a careless attitude towards the house.
You can bypass the choice-making process by mixing the two materials to achieve a new range of possibilities for the kitchen design and textures.
