How to do...

1. Basic cleaning

The wood must be completely clean, dry and free from resin, grease, oil, wax, lime and cleaning residues. Use Wood Cleaner for the thorough cleaning.

2. Sanding

– of new wood surface:
Sand with sandpaper grit 120. Remove any sanding dust from the surface with a vacuum cleaner before applying the lacquer.

– of wood surface to be re-lacquered: Remove loose chips and soap residues from the surface. Sand carefully with sandpaper grit 120. Remove any sanding dust from the surface with a vacuum cleaner before applying the lacquer.

– of surface with old lacquer too damaged to be repaired:
Lacquered surfaces which are severely damaged must be levelled and sanded to bare wood. Start the sanding with sand- paper grit 36. Continue with grit 60, 80, 100, and end with grit 120. Remove any sanding dust from the surface with a vacuum cleaner before applying the lacquer.

3. Preparation
Stir the lacquer carefully before and during use. It is advantageous to apply a coat of lacquer to edges with a brush prior to the lacquering of the whole area.

4. Lacquering

– First application:
Apply a thin coat of lacquer with brush or lacquer roller. Leave the lacquer to dry for approx. 4 hours. Make intermediate sanding with sandpaper grit 120 after the drying time of 4 hours. Remove any sanding dust from the surface with a vacuum cleaner before applying the lacquer.

– Second application:
Likewise apply a second thin lacquer coat with brush or lacquer roller. The lacquered surface may be used after 24 hours. The surface is completely hardened after 1 week.

Please notice:
Cannot be re-lacquered with a lacquer based on solvent. The product does not contain NMP.
