BASF has the right paint for high-quality wood interior trim. Incidentally, for this BASF use the same paint as is used for grand pianos.
The basis of the piano coating is unsaturated polyester resins, which at BASF Coatings are condensed from alcohols and acids at 200°C. As with a cake batter, the paint producer gradually adds color pigments and additives to the resins. The additives ensure that the liquid paint does not sag when it is applied to vertical surfaces, such as the body of the piano. They also influence how quickly the paint gels and ultimately hardens.
