Surface Prep:
Always ensure the surface is clean of contaminants and dust. Sanding any surface too smoothly can reduce adhesion and create application issues like orange peel.
Raw Wood
Sand with up to 220 grit.
Pre‐finished Wood
Clean using 50/50 mix of denatured alcohol and water with maroon non‐woven pad. Sand with fine (220‐320) foam sanding pad or maroon non‐woven pad. A bonding primer may be necessary to ensure adhesion on highly‐worn surfaces.
Other Substrates
Can be used with proper priming. Always test first. Sanding Between Coats: Using fine (220‐320) foam sanding pad or gray non‐woven pad.
System Recommendations
Can be used without a primer. For white and other light colors, GF Stain Blocker is recommended. For high‐use surfaces, up to 3 coats of a GF topcoat is recommended.
