Maintenance:
If existing coats of varnish are intact, one or more coats may be applied on a well cleaned, degreased and lightly sanded surface.
For annual maintenance, apply a minimum of one or two coats of Epifanes Clear Gloss Varnish, following surface preparation instruction.
The number of maintenance coats needed depends on the condition of the varnish system.
Epifanes Clear Gloss Varnish may also be applied on any well cleaned, degreased and sanded two-component varnish.
The weather and atmospheric conditions to which the finish is subjected will determine the amount of time between coats.
An existing varnish system in poor condition must be removed. Weathered spots may be treated with a cleaning or bleaching product.
If either are used, wash down the surface thoroughly with fresh water in order to remove any residue. Allow the surface to dry.
Smaller spots needing repair may be filled with several coats of varnish.
When an equal level has been achieved, sand to a smooth surface and apply one or more coats of varnish on the entire surface.
