Preparation |
PREVIOUSLY VARNISHED WOOD:
In Good Condition: Clean with thinners. Sand smooth with 280-320
grade paper. Remove sanding dust with thinners.
In Poor Condition: Remove all previous coatings.
BARE WOOD: Sand smooth with 80-120 grade paper and then 280 grade
paper. Clean surface by brushing, dusting or wiping. If wiping with
solvent then allow to dry completely before applying first coat of
varnish.
Priming bare wood:: Apply Intertox or UCP. If UCP has been
omitted thin the first coat by 10-15% with Thinners No.9.
OILY WOODS e.g. Teak: Perfection Varnish is not suitable for
application on oily woods. |
|
|
|
Method |
For best results when applying by roller, smooth off with a pad or
brush. Avoid using direct from the can. |

Hints |
Mixing Stir individual products prior to mixing. Mix the amount
you expect to use in a separate container. Add Curing Agent to the Base,
stir and leave for 10 minutes to allow bubbles to disperse.
