A finish selector that explains each option as you choose

01

What they do

Picking a finish opens a drawer that explains each one in plain English: how shiny it is, what surfaces it suits, what sizes it comes in. You can filter by surface or by what you need it to do, and if you'd rather not decide, one is marked Recommended.

02

Why it works

Finish is where first-timers stall, because the names are trade language and getting it wrong means repainting a kitchen. Explaining it inside the drawer, at the moment you're choosing, beats a help article nobody comes back from. And the Recommended badge saves anyone who'd rather not decide, which is most people.

03

Makes sense when

Any required option in language the customer doesn't speak: finishes, fabric grades, tog ratings, sizing systems. Put the explanation inside the selector, one line per option in plain words, and mark a recommended one.
