Before you begin:
Make sure the product is at room temperature. Stir the varnish with a stick so that the matter at the bottom of the container peels off and blends perfectly with the mixture before starting.
Surface preparation:
Bare wood: Sand with a 120 or 150 grit sandpaper. Do not use steel wool. Vacuum the dust and wipe it off with a clean, dry cloth.
Varnished wood: The surface must be dry, clean and free of dust, mold, wax, grease and moisture. Wash the surface with SamaN’s TSPeco and lightly sand with a 150 grit sandpaper.
Stained wood: Ensure that the surface is completely dry before applying the product. This will prevent the pigments of the stain from rising up into the varnish and givie an uneven finish.
Application:
Apply 2 to 3 coats of SamaN’s water-based varnish following the direction of the wood grain with a good quality brush, an 8 mm lint-free roller or an HVLP paint gun.
Sand between coats with a 180 grit sandpaper.
Vacuum sandblasting dust and wipe off with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
Repeat this process between each coat of varnish to be applied.
Drying time:
Let it dry for 1 to 2 hours between coats.
Wait 24 hours before allowing light traffic.
Wait one week for heavier traffic or to lay your rug.
Cleaning tools:
Clean all tools and equipment with hot water and soft soap immediately after use.
