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.
