Sanding Sealer 500ml

This sanding sealer is designed to raise that nap of the grain making it stand up and become brittle. It can then be sanded off with fine grit abrasive paper, giving a silky-smooth base for you to apply your finish with no fear of the nap raising again.

Sanding a piece of wood tears at the grain and even after the finest sanding this torn grain is evident almost as soon as a finish is applied. Nine times out of ten the torn grain (nap) will swell and stand up in the finish, giving you the feeling that sand has been thrown on the work.

APPLICATION
Apply a damp, even coat using a clean (preferably lint free) rag, to the whole surface of the work. One application is all that is needed. Do not flood the work with the sealer.

Allow to dry. This could take anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour or more, depending on weather conditions, timber type and how much you apply.

Once dry sand with one grade of fine abrasive paper. (600 – 800 grit or finer if desired) Sand lightly with the grain. Stop sanding when the nap is removed and the surface feels silky smooth. If the paper clogs immediately with the sealer, leave it to dry a little longer.
