Instructions for use

1. Substrate preparation he substrate must be dry (wood with less than 12% humidity), clean, free of dust, grease and oil. Cleaning with BIOFA 0500 thinner may be recommended.
   Carefully sand surfaces (floor 120, furniture 180-240), removing any previous paintwork. Use suitable pads.
   For freshly glued floor coverings, ensure that the glue used is completely dry.
2. Base coat: bix well. Thin varnish with 20-30% BIOFA 0500 Thinner.
   Apply a thin coat by brush, roller or spray gun.
   Alternatively to solvent: use BIOFA 3755 Solvent-Free Hard Primer.
   After 16 to 24 hours, sand with180-240 (furniture), 150-180 (floor) or with a pad.
   Spray application:
   Goblet: nozzle 1.5-1.8 mm, 2.5-3.5 bar;
   Airless: nozzle 0.23-0.28 mm, 4 bar on 80 bar
   Values to be adapted according to equipment; do not apply hot.
3. Intermediate and top coats: sccording to the strength required, apply one or two more thin, even coats of universal varnish.
