In the world of wood restoration, time is money — and traditional methods like sanding and chemical stripping eat up both. That’s why restoration shops across the country are turning to laser technology to reclaim time, precision, and profitability. One recent project with the A-LUX PulseLite proves just how game-changing this tech can be.
The Challenge: A Full Kitchen Cabinet Refinish
Refinishing kitchen cabinets is notoriously labor-intensive. Between degreasing, sanding intricate profiles, and trying not to damage the wood, a full strip can take a skilled crew several days to a week or more — especially on older cabinets with layered finishes and detail work.
This shop, however, had a different plan.
The Solution: Two A-LUX PulseLites, One 10-Hour Shift
Armed with two A-LUX 300W PulseLite systems, the crew got to work. No sanding. No chemicals. Just precision laser ablation that cleanly stripped the finish off cabinet faces, frames, doors, and moldings.
In just 10 hours, the entire kitchen was laser-stripped, prepped, and ready for refinishing — with minimal handwork and no mess from sanding dust blanketing the workspace. The cleaning process post-laser was fast and manageable, allowing the shop to stay on schedule and under budget.
The Impact: Efficiency Meets Craftsmanship
Labor Savings: What was once a 40–50 hour job became a single-day project.
Surface Preservation: No gouging, no swirl marks, no overheating. The wood grain remained perfectly intact.
Cleaner Workflow: No chemical residue or airborne sanding dust—just manageable fume extraction and quick cleanup.
Repeatable Results: The same precision and speed can now be replicated job after job.
Why It Matters to Your Shop
If you're still relying on sanders and solvents to refinish cabinets, you're leaving hours (and dollars) on the table. The A-LUX PulseLite isn't just a tool — it's a system designed to modernize restoration work. It boosts throughput, improves quality, and pays for itself in labor savings alone.
Whether you’re restoring kitchens, furniture, trim, or antiques, laser cleaning with the A-LUX PulseLite makes every job faster and more profitable — without compromising craftsmanship.
