Preparing Your Surfaces

General: Clean and dry surface thoroughly, removing all dirt, dust, wax and wood marks. Remove gloss with sandpaper or liquid gloss remover. Do not apply over lacquer or shellac.
New or Stained Wood: Smooth wood lightly with sandpaper. Stain, if desired. Allow stain to dry overnight before applying lacquer. Sand lightly again and remove sanding dust before finishing.
Painted or Varnished Wood: Remove all paint and varnish in poor condition with sandpaper or paint and varnish remover following manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions. Then, follow new wood instructions. Varnish in good condition merely needs to be clean and have the gloss dulled.

Application

DO NOT SHAKE! Stir well before use and occasionally during use. Before applying the finish to the entire surface, check effect by testing on an extra piece of the same wood or by applying to a hidden part of the object. Apply a uniform, thin coat using a high quality, clean polyester or natural bristle brush. Brush in even strokes in the direction of the wood grain. Do not over-work or over-brush as material dries quickly and stain may bleed. Allow to dry for 2 hours before applying second coat.
