The items are sold and shipped with a factory finish. This finish has a slight texture that is created in the manufacturing process. It can be buffed out easily and finishes can be applied to it to give it a deeper shine.

Low maintenance, minimal shrinkage, and a density that is right in the middle of the range for ebony, there are only advantages to using Black Diamond Richlite on your guitar.

• Acoustically superior and consistent density
• Moisture acclimated and inherently stable
• Durable while maintaining an ebony look and feel
• Hand made in the U.S.A. and FSC® Certified
• Impact resistance and span superior to wood products
• Machines with standard tooling
  

Two-part water-resistant epoxies formulated for thermoset resins or phenolics are recommended for gluing (most other adhesives will not be appropriate for use with Richlite). Make sure the joint surfaces are roughed-up 100 grit or less, for better glue adhesion. Do not over-tighten clamps to keep enough glue in the seam. Richlite suggests using System Three T-88 for structural bonding; Loctite E-30CL, 3MTM Scotch-WeldTM Epoxy Adhesive DP125, or Devcon DEV-20845 5-minute epoxy are also acceptable.
