Directions for use

Preparation:

  • All surfaces to be finished must be clean and free of oil, dust and contamination that may cause fisheyes or poor adhesion. Clean surface with denatured alcohol or fresh water. Allow surface to thoroughly dry before proceeding. Fine sand surface to be finished with the appropriate grade sandpaper based on the type of final finish required.
  • If the surface to be finished has a grain-filling type glaze, sealer or paste, ensure that the systems are compatible with one another by preparing a test panel before proceeding.
  • Certain solvent-based fillers and glazes may prevent proper adhesion of the topcoat if not thoroughly cured. Ensure that grain fillers have been sanded with a minimum of 400-grit sandpaper and all contamination is removed. Oil-Based glazes should be air-dried and tested to ensure proper early adhesion of the water-based topcoat.
  • Mix the product thoroughly.
  • Can be fortified with 2 to 5% of CL100 Cross-Linker

Application:

  • Apply the lacquer using HVLP, Conventional or Airless/Air-assist spray equipment. Consult with your spray gun manufacturer for proper gun set-ups based on coating viscosity and intended use
  • Spray gun operators must wear a NIOSHA approved respirator during the spray application of this material. Consult the Material Safety data Sheet of this material for safety and health procedures.
  • The product can be used without being diluted with water or with the SA5 Retarder. However, the use of SA5 can be useful to slow down the drying time of the lacquer when applying in warm temperature.
  • Reduce the EM7000 lacquer upwards to 50% with water if lacquer is to be used as a pre-stain sealer or tie-coat between stain or dye coats to prevent color bleed.
  • Apply a first coat and let dry 30 to 45 minutes. Apply a second coat and let dry for 30 to 45 minutes. Repeat the operation until you obtain the desired finish.
  • Sanding between each coat is not necessary unless contamination has effected the film formation, or if the last coat has dried for more then 24 hours. In this case, sand with 600-grit sandpaper to remove surface imperfections, runs, sags and contamination.
  • EM7000 can be polished to a variety of sheens with the use of modern polishing products designed for acrylic applications.
