Description

USES:

1. Ideal for coating NEW TIMBER FLOORS suspected of being prone to shrinkage. MODIFIED OIL GLOSS will greatly reduce the occurrence of EDGE BONDING.
2. For clients concerned about exposure to fumes from POLYURETHANES, MODIFIED OIL GLOSS is less likely to cause discomfort because only low VOC WHITE SPIRIT is used as the solvent.
3. MODIFIED OIL GLOSS is completely compatible with URETHANE COATINGS MODIFIED OIL SATIN and/or TUNGSEAL.

APPLICATION:

1. Fine sand timber to a smooth finish.  Hardwoods must not be burnished and grain must remain open.  Accordingly, Urethane Coatings recommend nothing finer than 120 grit paper or equivalent is used to finish sanding new hardwood floors or to finish sanding old hardwood floors back to bare timber.  Vacuum thoroughly.  Ensure the timber surface if free from dust, wax or oily substances.
2. SHAKE WELL and/or STIR THOROUGHLY
3. The first coat may be either (a) Urethane Coatings TUNGSEAL PENETRATING FIRST COAT or (b) Urethane Coatings TIMBER SEAL.  Apply with a mohair roller, lambswool applicator or brush
4. Allow 30 to 60 minutes to dry, then lightly sand with a worn 150 mesh screenback and vacuum thoroughly.  If two coats of MODIFIED OIL are to be applied, sanding of the first TUNGSEAL Penetrating Coat or TIMBERSEAL is unnecessary.
5. Apply the second coat – MODIFIED OIL GLOSS – with a mohair roller, lambswool applicator or brush.
6. Allow to dry overnight, lightly sand with a worn 150 mesh screenback. NOTE; If the coating does not sand to a fine white powder, leave for another 24 hours.  Some timber species exude oils and antioxidants which severely retard the curing process.
7. Apply a final coat of MODIFIED OIL GLOSS.
8. Do not return unused material to the can.
9. Thoroughly clean the mohair roller, lamb’s wool applicator or brush in URETHANE COATINGS MINERAL TURPENTINE.  Dry all equipment before reusing.
