| Direction
for Use |
- Ensure room conditions are warm dry and well
ventilated. Do not apply if the
temperature is below 13 °C and/or the relative
humidity is above 65%.
- Ensure the wood is clean, dry, sanded smooth
and dust free.
- Apply using a brush, spray or the preferred
lambswool applicator.
- Apply at least 3 coats (more if heavier wear
is anticipated). Allow the previous coat to
dry thoroughly before applying the next. A light
sanding between coats using 120 grit sandpaper
will improve the appearance.
- Wash all the equipment immediately after use
with cold water. Ensure the spray vessels are
suitably lined or have removable plastic inserts.

at entrances and that a regular maintenance schedule
is carried out. |
