The Federal style — sometimes called Adam style after the Scottish brothers who popularized it — shaped American homes from roughly 1780 to 1830, just after independence. Where Georgian trim is robust and Greek Revival is heavy, Federal moulding is delicate and refined: slim reeded pilasters, fine bead-and-reel detailing, oval and elliptical motifs, and crisp, narrow profiles that feel almost neoclassical-jewelry in scale.
Mason’s Mill carries 44 Federal & Adam profiles suited to early Republic townhouses, New England center-hall colonials, and Charleston single houses. They pair beautifully with our Georgian and Greek Revival profiles when layering periods on a single restoration.
The CUTEK® Wood Reviver, CUTEK® Wood Stripper (formerly CUTEK® CD33 Naked) and CUTEK® Quickcleaner products are powerful and user-friendly. No professional experience is necessary. These CUTEK® products can help restore stained, weathered and gray wood back to its original appearance.
CUTEK® Wood Reviver is effective in removing stubborn stains caused by tannins, water, iron, resins, mold and fungus. It also removes the common invisible glaze (mill glaze) to prepare newly sawn or machined wood for coating. CUTEK® Wood Reviver will brighten, clean and restore wood to look like new, ready for CUTEK® Extreme. It can be used diluted or undiluted depending on the severity of staining and/or weathering.
CUTEK® Wood Stripper is suitable for removing multiple layers of the most commonly used wood coatings such as latex paints, stains, varnishes, linseed oils, acrylics and other film forming coatings. It is also effective at removing coatings from metal, brick and masonry surfaces.
CUTEK® Quickclean is the perfect way to regularly keep all your wood clean, and it prepares wood to optimize the performance of maintenance coats of CUTEK® Extreme. It will easily remove dirt, grease and grime from your outside surfaces as well as even out CUTEK® Colortone that has started to wear or erode unevenly on your wood.
