DESCRIPTION: BIO Wood Varnish is a clear
varnish. It is based on natural and non toxic ingredients like
renewable plant oils and resins. The natural and non toxic
ingredients are gentle to the climate and resources. It is a hard,
elastic, semi-transparent varnish for use on timber surfaces
exposed to sun and rain. It is resistant to dirt and moisture.
PROTECTION: Protection against weather and
wood-destroying ultra-violet light. 3 coats are recommended.
Minimum dry film thickness on an even smooth surface: 60 micron,
better 100 micron. Box frames, timber windows, cladding and end
grains must be treated BEFORE INSTALLATION with one coat
of BIO Wood Primer and one
coat of BIO Wood Varnish clear. It is also good practice to
prime back surfaces. Re-apply once the finish appears to become
dull.
PRIMING: For fungi and insect treatment
use BIO WOOD PROTECTING BORAX. Before painting, wipe off the surplus of Borax
with a damp cloth, otherwise surface residue may inhibit paint
adhesion.
PREPARATION: Prepare surface in accordance with
AS 2311 Painting of Buildings. Do not apply coatings to unseasoned
or wet timber. Wood and other surfaces should be well sanded, dry
and cleaned of greasy, waxy and dirty contaminants using BIO
Thinner. Round off sharp edges. Imperfect coats may require
complete stripping before applying BIO products. Hardwoods and
other timbers rich in natural oils, waxes, acids and terpenes
should be degreased using BIO Thinner, because these substances may
mix with the varnish and prolong its drying time. Do not apply on
over acrylic, PUR or epoxy based coatings.
APPLICATION: Stir thoroughly before use with a
broad flat stirrer. Brush thinly and evenly working varnish well
into the grain. Maintain a wet edge when painting. Thick coats
wrinkle when dry. Avoid bubbles. Lightly sand between coats if
necessary with fine sandpaper. Allow 12 to 24 hours to dry between
coats. Low temperatures and humid conditions prolong the drying
time. Apply second and subsequent coats only after previous coat
has thoroughly dried. Do not use below 10°C and or above 80%
humidity, in cold damp conditions, when condensation,
rain, dew or frost are likely to occur or hot days, hot surfaces
and direct sunlight. Provide adequate ventilation during
application and drying. Reaches maximum durability after 8-14
days.
