Substrate Preparation

Virgin substrate

Pre-coated substrate

1. Strip back to the wood
2. Sand with a series of grits between 36g and 120g using a belt sander
3. Finish sanding with a tri- or monodisc finishing sander

Application Guidelines

1. Use a short mohair or similar roller, mohair flooring pad or T-bar applicator
2. Predominantly with the grain, apply the lacquer evenly, making smooth passes with the roller/pad
3. Apply 3-5 coats at 75-80g/m² per coat wet film thickness (minimum of 4 coats for high traffic areas)
4. Allow 3 hours to dry between coats
5. For best results, only apply 2 coats per day
