Preparation

PREVIOUSLY VARNISHED WOOD

  • In Good Condition: Clean with thinners. Sand smooth with 280­-320 grade paper. Remove sanding dust with thinners. 
  • In Poor Condition: Remove all previous coatings. Apply a minimum of 3­-5 coats. Sand every 2­-3 coats, using 320-­400 grade paper - Remove sanding dust with a dust wipe. 

BARE WOOD Sand smooth with 80­-180 grade paper and then 280 grade paper. Remove sanding dust by brushing, dusting and wiping. If wiping with solvent then allow to dry completely before applying the first coat. 

OILY WOODS e.g. Teak Must be adequately degreased (Thinners No.1 is recommended) and prepared prior to application of Compass. Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying the first coat. Prime, if required, with an International Prime

BRUSH/ROLLER If no primer has been applied, thin the first coat 30% with Thinner No.1. Subsequent coats can be thinned up to 15% dependent upon ambient temperature, application conditions and personal preference. Apply a further 3­5 coats (brush)/ 4­6 coats (roller), until satisfactory finish is achieved. Sand every 2­3 coats, using 320­400 grade paper.* Remove sanding dust with a dust wipe. * Initial aesthetics may be further improved by sanding between every coat.

Method

Pour the amount you expect to use in a separate container. Avoid using direct from the can. Strain it through a paint strainer to ensure there is no contamination. Do not apply too thickly.

Hints

  • Mixing: Stir thoroughly before use.
  • Thinner: Brush ­ YTA800 Thinner No. 1. Spray ­ Thinner 910 or Thinner 920
  • Thinning: Thin the first coat by 30% using recommended thinner. Subsequent coats can be thinned up to 15% dependent upon ambient temperature, application conditions and personal preference to allow best finish.
  • Cleaner: Thinners No.1 (YTA800)
  • Conventional Spray (Professional spray application only): Pressure Pot: 1­2 bar 14.5­29 psi (gun pressure), 8­10 psi (air pressure) Tip Size: 1.2­1.4 mm. Thin 20­25% with Thinner 910 or Thinner 920.
  • Brush: Always use a clean brush that is kept specifically for varnishing. Clean brushes before use.
  • Roller: If rolling, use a thin nap roller and "tip­off" with a clean natural bristle brush or pad otherwise air bubbles may become trapped in the film.
  • Other: Spray pressures listed are recommendations only. The applicator may use any settings which yield the best results for the individual spraying technique and current weather conditions. Avoid using direct from the can. Pour the amount you expect to use in a separate container. When applying Compass by brush or roller, it may be necessary to adjust the number of coats applied to ensure the total specified system dry film thickness is achieved.
