SPECIFICATIONS
Wood (interior only): Must be clean, dry,
and finish sanded. Substrate should be
free of grease, oil, dirt, fingerprints, and
any contamination to ensure optimum
adhesion and coating performance properties.
Moisture content of wood should be 6 to
8%.
Testing: Due to the wide variety of substrates,
surface preparation methods,
application methods, and environments,
the customer should test the complete
system for adhesion and compatibility
prior to full scale application.
Wood Finishing System:
Three Coat System
1. Moisture Resistant Lacquer, dry one
hour
2. Moisture Resistant Lacquer, dry one
hour, sand with stearated paper
3. Moisture Resistant Lacquer
Sanding Sealer System
1. Vinyl Sanding Sealer, T67F3, T67F5,
T67F6 or T67F7, dry 30 minutes and
sand
2. Moisture Resistant Lacquer, dry one
hour
3. Moisture Resistant Lacquer
The 3 coat system is ideal for customers
who like to limit the number of finishing
materials they must have on hand to one
product.
APPLICATION
Typical Setups
Reduction: Normally not required. If reduction
is needed use HAPS Compliant
Lacquer Thinner, R7K320 or R7K322.
Lacquer thinner K22 or K120 may also
be used, but are not HAPS compliant.
May be applied by:
Conventional
Airless Spray
Warm Spray
Curtain Coating
Consult your Honest-Joy Representative
for details.
Conventional Spray:
Air Pressure .......................... 50-65 psi
Fluid Pressure ....................... 12-15 psi
Cleanup:
Clean tools/equipment immediately after
use with HAPS complying lacquer
thinner, R7K 320 or R7K322. Lacquer
thinner, K120 or K22, may also be used,
but are not HAPS compliant.
Follow manufacturer's safety recommendations
when using any solvent.
SPECIFICATIONS
Product Limitations:
• Surface to be finished must be free from
grease and other foreign matter.
• Apply all coats within a 12 hour period or
lifting may occur.
• Apply directly to bare or stained wood for
best adhesion and moisture results. Adhesion
may be impaired and resistance to
moisture lowered if used over lacquer
sealer. If a sealer is desired use Sher-
Wood Vinyl Sealer, T67F3, T67F5, T67F6
or T67F7.
• If spraying conditions are above 50% RH,
use MAK, R6K30, to prevent wet film blushing.
Such drying conditions will lengthen
time to harden the film.
• Customer urged to pretest system under
shop conditions.
• Sand and remove sanding dust between
each coat.
• Not recommended for exterior use.
• To maintain HAPS compliance only reduce
with HAPS compliant reducers.
Birch panels were finished with 3 coats of Gloss
Moisture Resistant Lacquer, with 1 hour drying
between coats. The front, back and all sides were
finished.
1. An "X" cut was made through the finish to the
wood. This was covered with a wet synthetic
sponge for 16 hours. After sponge removal, a
whitening appeared, on the cut, which disappeared
after 2 hours.
2. KCMA Finish Test, F-4, Detergent and Water
Test—no effect.
Performance Tests:
Cold Check Resistance .................. 20 cycles
Print Resistance ................................. No print
3.0 mils dft, 18 hours air dry, at 1 psi at 77°F in
direct contact with 8 oz. duck cloth.
Household Chemicals Test
Maple panels were finished with 3 coats of Gloss
Moisture Resistant Lacquer, with 1 hour drying
between coats. After film was aged 30 days at
77°F, 5 drops of each item were placed under a
watch glass for one hour. The film was rinsed
with water, washed with soap and water, dried
and wiped with VM&P Naphtha to remove items
not removed with water. After removal, the finish
was examined and the following results noted:
Household Ammonia .......... slight haze/dulling
Vinegar ................................... no visual effect
Lipstick ................................... no visual effect
Lemon Juice ........................... no visual effect
50% Ethyl Alcohol .................. no visual effect
Mercurochrome 2% ................ no visual effect
Washable Blue Ink ................. no visual effect
Mustard .................................. no visual effect
Oil Base Paint ........................ no visual effect
Latex Emulsion Paint ............. no visual effect
VM&P Naphtha ...................... no visual effect
Turpentine .............................. no visual effect
Orange Crayon ....................... no visual effect
Carbon Tetrachloride .............. no visual effect
Mayonnaise ............................ no visual effect
10% Sodium Carbonate ......... no visual effect
Sour Milk ................................ no visual effect
Margarine ............................... no visual effect
Butter ..................................... no visual effect
