Mixing and Application:
Always select seasoned wood for excellent wood
finishing. The wooden surface to be coated must be dry and free from dust, oils,
grease and other foreign matter. Sand the surface with dry sandpaper no. 180 or
with any other suitable type until the surface is smooth. Remove all dust. Fill
the grains with Anupam Wood Filler and after drying, sand with sandpaper no.
280 or 320.
Mix base and hardener components of Anu-Min
Sealer in recommended ratio in a clean container made of either glass or
plastic. Do not mix more than can be used within 8 hours. Allow the mixture to
mature for 15 minutes before application. Apply a coat of Anu-Min Sealer
and after 8 hours of drying, scuff with sandpaper no. 320 or higher. Remove all
dust. Further coats are recommended until the surface becomes smooth. If wood
stains are required, apply a coat of spirit based or water based stain on the
sealer. Apply a coat of Anu-Min Finish as suggested above for Anu-Min
Sealer. More coats can be applied for achieving desired finish.
Notes:
Spray equipment should be cleaned
with. Anusol - MTP Thinner
The contents should be stirred
thoroughly prior to use.
It is recommended that only the
recommended amount of catalyst/hardener is used.
This coating should always be thinned with Anusol - MTP Thinner. The use of alternative thinners can severely inhibit the curing mechanism of the coating.
