This clear varnish is available in gloss, satin, and matt finishes, giving flexibility to achieve the desired aesthetic without altering the underlying surface colour.

Surface Preparation

Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose material.
Sand glossy or previously varnished surfaces lightly to improve adhesion.
Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler and allow it to dry.
Remove masking tape and protect surrounding areas from drips or overspray.

Mixing

Stir the varnish thoroughly with a paddle or paint stick for at least 2 minutes before use.
Re-stir periodically during application to maintain uniform consistency.

Application Methods

Brush: Use a high-quality synthetic brush for smooth, even coats.
Roller: Medium-nap rollers work well on flat or large surfaces for faster coverage.
Spray: Low-pressure airless or HVLP spray units can be used; thin slightly if necessary (check manufacturer guidelines).

First Coat

Apply a thin, even coat along the grain of the wood or in smooth strokes over other surfaces.
Avoid overloading the brush or roller to prevent runs and pooling.

Second Coat

Once the first coat is touch-dry (~2 hours), apply a second thin coat at right angles to the first.
Two coats are generally sufficient for most interior applications; a third coat can be added for extra protection or gloss.

Drying & Recoat Times

Touch Dry: Approximately 2 hours at 18°C and 65% humidity.
Recoatable: After 4 hours for a smooth, even finish.
Complete Cure: Surface achieves maximum durability and chemical resistance after 7 days.

Maintenance & Cleaning

Clean tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
Wipe spills promptly with a damp cloth.
For routine cleaning, use mild detergent and avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.

Pro Tips

Apply in a well-ventilated area with consistent temperature for best results.
For large projects, work in manageable sections to maintain a wet edge.
Avoid applying in direct sunlight or humid conditions to prevent streaking or extended drying times.
