Overview

Zinsser Seal Coat is the perfect sanding sealer for interior woodwork. It deeply penetrates the surface and dries quickly to give wood surfaces a rich tone. It is recommended to use under strong solvent-based topcoats to protect and ensure superb adhesion. Seal Coat also ensures the adhesion of solvent-based polyurethane, water-based polyurethane, lacquer, and other clear finishes. This product can also be used to create a barrier that seals in odours from certain types of woods and chipboard. As well as giving extra beauty and warmth to water-based polyurethanes.

• Compatible with clear wood finishes
• Seals ALL interior wood

Preparation

Always ensure the surface to be treated is clean, dry, and free from any dust, grease, oil, wax, mould, or possible contaminants that may interfere with adhesion.

• Remove any wax from the surface with a methylated spirit
• Sand bare wood as smoothly as possible and remove any sanding dust
• All previously applied wood stains and finishes must be completely dry

Application

Always test a small area before application to ensure you are happy with the results

• Application can be done with a natural bristle brush or lint-free cloth
• Work in the direction of the wood grain
• For brush application - Apply a full brush load of Sealcoat to the surface using full, even strokes, brushing back into the wet material to maintain a wet edge. Do not over brush or brush back into material once it becomes tacky
• For Cloth Application – Work into the wood and wipe away any excess with a cloth and stop wiping when the surface becomes tacky
• If the wood is stained, a second application may be needed to avoid sanding through the sealer and the stain
• 2 coats will be required to seal odours allow 20-30 minutes before applying a second coat

Note: Always follow the manufacturer instructions found on the tin.
