Independent cabinet-maker-turned-artist, Rob Bishop, says that he recently tested out the Mighton Ankerstuy coatings range for some new artwork pieces, and was ‘more than impressed’ with the results.
Created at his Hertfordshire-based workshop, Rob’s unique style of artwork is formed using a method that combines digital art with wood work and painting.
“With my style of art, I have tried and tested many different brands of coatings, but after using Mighton’s water-based range, I found it works a lot better than others I have experimented with in the past,” explained Rob. “Mighton’s range is particularly suitable for my work on both the frame and the artwork itself as it has a great consistency and ease of application. This allows me to spray a good coat to a frame that is hanging from the rack, without the fear of it running. Drying times are also perfect and, as a result, this has given my pieces a high standard of finish.”
Mighton claims to have first introduced Anker Stuy Verven paint products to the UK joinery market in 2016, as a sole trusted distributor, before both companies announced an official partnership earlier this year. A rebrand of the range subsequently took place with all paints and coatings now distributed to UK joiners under the new Mighton Ankerstuy brand.
Said to offer ‘ease and consistency’ of application, fast drying times, ‘exceptional’ durability and ‘sustainable’ performance, Mighton says the range received such an encouraging response following its launch, that it has recently been expanded to offer both interior and exterior finishes.
