Application and advice

Preparation

Remove all traces of old finishes, dirt, oil, wax and grease. These may have impregnated the surface and can cause failure. Sand in direction of the grain to provide a key. Thoroughly clean after sanding. Instructions in the technical data sheet must be followed. Ensure the product is well mixed but do not shake.

Application

Apply 2 to 3 coats of varnish, with a good quality brush. On new softwood and porous surfaces dilute the first coat 10% with water. Lightly sand wood in between applications to remove any raising of the grain. For a dead flat finish with high durability and stain resistance, apply two coats of satin followed by one of dead flat.

Caution

Always apply to a test area before starting work. Appearance may vary according to the colour and type of wood and the number of coats. Do not apply over uncured oil paints.

Storage

Protect from extremes of temperature during storage and application.
