Application Process for Dandy Paints Wood Lacquer (Shine)
To achieve a smooth, glossy finish and ensure the best protection for your wooden surfaces, follow these steps for applying Dandy Paints Wood Lacquer (Shine):
- Surface Preparation:
- Ensure that the wooden surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, or old coatings.
- Sand the surface with fine sandpaper (180-220 grit) to create a smooth, even base. For better adhesion, wipe the surface with a clean cloth to remove any sanding dust.
- Thinning (If Required):
- If needed, thin the lacquer with Dandy Paints Wood Lacquer Thinner (following the recommended thinning ratio) for easy application and better flow.
- Always stir the lacquer thoroughly before use.
- First Coat Application:
- Use a high-quality brush, roller, or spray gun to apply the first coat of Dandy Paints Wood Lacquer (Shine).
- Apply in smooth, even strokes following the grain of the wood for an even finish. Avoid over-applying to prevent drips.
- Drying Time:
- Allow the first coat to dry for 2-3 hours (drying time may vary depending on temperature and humidity). Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying the next coat.
- Sanding Between Coats:
- Once the first coat has dried, lightly sand the surface with fine sandpaper (320 grit or higher) to remove any imperfections or bubbles. Wipe the surface with a clean, dry cloth to remove sanding dust.
- Second Coat Application:
- Apply a second coat in the same manner as the first coat. Ensure the finish is even and smooth for a glossy, flawless look.
- Allow the second coat to dry completely, and inspect the finish. If needed, apply a third coat for an extra glossy, mirror-like finish.
- Final Drying and Curing:
- Allow the lacquered surface to cure for 24-48 hours before using it or placing objects on it. The lacquer will continue to harden and develop its durability during this curing period.
- Clean Up:
- Clean brushes, rollers, or spray equipment immediately after use with Dandy Paints Wood Lacquer Thinner or an appropriate cleaning solvent.
Safety Measures:
- Always apply in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate protective gear such as gloves, safety glasses, and a mask.
- Keep the product away from heat, open flames, and children.
By following these steps, you will achieve a durable, glossy, and mirror-like finish that enhances the natural beauty of your woodwork and provides long-lasting protection.
