Code: 6ZUV00

One-component gloss varnish based on phenolic resin and tung oil with UV filters added, for an extra-brilliant long lasting and non-yellowing clear finish withstanding marine environment. The phenolic modification combined with the selected type of fine quality resin and the high solids content make of this varnish a high performance product for a long term resistance in the marine environment. It is important not to exceed in the recommended thickness and that the required waiting time between coats be allowed.

SURFACE PREPARATION AND APPLICATION PROCEDURE 

Bare Wood The surface should be clean and dry, sandpapered and dusted off. Apply a first coat of STARWIND UV onto bare wood, highly diluted up to 50-70% (depending on wood absorption) in order to allow the varnish to sink into the wood substrate. (As a clear primer alternative, one coat of POLIGLASS two-component varnish diluted 50-100% (depending on wood absorption) with Thinner 203 can be applied; care should be taken in order to maintain the grain of the wood open so to enable the application of subsequent coats of STARWIND UV. Overcoat then with 4-5 coats of STARWIND UV to obtain a high quality gloss finish, allowing the required recoat time between coats. Do not exceed the recommended thickness.

Previously Varnished Wood
- If the old paint is in poor conditions, loose or powdery, it should be mechanically removed. Clean the surface well and follow application directions as per bare wood.
- If the old paint is in good condition of adhesion and it only needs a topcoat because it is dull or dirty but with the underneath coatings still well fixed to the substrate (with no cracks or bubbles), clean,degrease and sandpaper with medium-fine abrasive paper and apply 2-3 coats of STARWIND UV to obtain a high quality gloss finish, allowing the required recoat time between coats. Do not exceed the recommended thickness.
