Stain Clear Aqua Blank 500ml Herdins

Description

Protect and highlight the natural grain of the wood with Herdins Stain Clear Aqua Blank. This water-based, glossy clear varnish is specially developed to provide optimal wear resistance and long-lasting protection on clean, previously varnished or stained wood surfaces indoors. The varnish is ideal for furniture, panels, joinery, moldings and doors. With its quick-drying and almost odorless acrylate formula, it is easy and pleasant to work with in a home environment without strong solvent odors. The glossy surface (gloss level approx. 65) gives a deep, elegant shine that is easy to wipe off and keep clean.

Guide: Apply Herdins Betslack Aqua step by step

• Preparation: Make sure the substrate is clean, dry and dust-free. When staining: let the stain dry completely according to instructions before painting. Sand clean wooden surfaces lightly in the direction of the grain with fine sandpaper (grain size 180–240) and vacuum thoroughly.
• Application: Stir the varnish well from the bottom before use (do not shake vigorously to avoid air bubbles). Apply an even, thin layer with a soft synthetic bristle paint brush or a paint roller.
• Intermediate sanding: For maximum durability and finish, 2–3 coats are recommended. Sand lightly with fine sandpaper (grit 240–320) between coats after the varnish has dried (remove sanding dust carefully).
• Finishing: The surface can be used lightly after 24 hours, but avoid heavy loads or moisture during the first 10–12 days while the varnish cures.

Cleaning and maintenance

• Tool care: Scrape and scrape off excess varnish from brushes and rollers immediately after painting. Then clean thoroughly with lukewarm water and washing-up liquid.
• Storage: Store frost-free and out of reach of children in a tightly closed original container. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
