It is advisable to clean old surfaces with White Spirit to remove any wax or contamination, wipe away the solution formed with clean kitchen paper towels. Bare wood may be dyed with either Rustins Wood Dye before varnishing.
Compatibility: Can be applied over either Rustins Wood Dye, other brands may be incompatible. Bare wood may be bleached with Rustins Wood Bleach prior to varnishing. Not for use over scumbles or oil-based paints. Other types of coatings/stains may be incompatible, including acrylic paints and vinyl emulsion. If using anything other than Rustins Wood Dye, a test area should be coated to determine compatibility.
Application: Synthetic brush, Varnish Roller or Spray (can be diluted with water about 10% if necessary for spraying, or if the temperature is high).
Coats: 2 or 3. Lightly sand after 1st coat to flatten any raised grain.
