Self-Coat Clear Guard / Wood Stains

ZERO V.O.C. E.M.T. VARNISHES 

DESCRIPTION

Varnishes are a water bond emulsion, electrometric membrane that is formulated as a clear product, providing superb sealing qualities.  It penetrates deep into the surface and reduces oil, grease, acids, and alkalis seeping into the surface and causing deterioration.  The natural resin enables it to bridge hairline and minor cracks within the substrate.  It also keeps dust down and forms a durable waterproofed surface, which is chemical – and abrasion resistant. 

USES

Varnishes are used alone as a waterproofing coating on surfaces where the natural colour is to be preserved, such as face brick, wooden doors and window frames, roof tiles, stones, etc.

It could also be used as reinforcement to fibreglass to gain maximum benefit.

Available in a Matt or semi-gloss finish and a selection of our 800 colours.

APPLICATION

Remove laitance, oil, grease, fat deposits, and chemical components form the surface.  Concrete should be left at least 28 days before application.  Old weathering surfaces should be washed with a high-pressure jet, sandblasting, or other mechanical means.  All wooden areas should be wiped with a damp cloth.  Wooden surfaces previously varnished, must be stripped down, and sanded.  Ensure application is carried out under suitable weather conditions.
