STEPS FOR UNFINISHED WOOD
If staining, note dry time on stain label
before finishing.
Sand wood with 180 grit sandpaper to proper
smoothness, remove dust, and stain if desired.
Apply one even coat of Deft Lacquer Sanding
Sealer with a bristle brush, pad, or spray. Let dry for 1
hour. Fine sand with the grain. Remove dust.
Apply the first even coat of Deft Clear Wood
Finish with a brush, roller, spray gun, or with Deft's
Aerosol Spray. Do not thin.
Apply additional coats at two hour intervals
- number of coats depends on the type of wood (open grain
woods require more coats that closed grain) and kind of
finish desired.
Three full coats provide a resistant finish.
Where wood is exposed to water, apply an additional three
coats.
Sand lightly after first coat with 220 grit
sandpaper and dust with a dry brush.
For a hand-rubbed finish, rub the final coat
lightly with 4/0 steel wool or a rubbing compound.
Clean brushes with lacquer thinner. For
temporary storage without cleaning, tightly wrap brushes in
a Saran-type material.
