Description
Bluebird Polyurethane high-solids interior and exterior varnish is an easy-to-apply single component formula that provides a long-lasting finish that is highly resistant to scratches, abrasion, water, food stains, grease and detergents.
- Increases brightness and color saturation
- Adjusts and unifies surface sheen
- Improves surface durability – ideal when shipping or exhibiting
- Protects colors from UV light damage
- Resists discoloration – yellowing and fogging – caused by humidity, heat, and UV
- Semi-opaque when wet, transparent when dry
- Use on flexible or rigid supports
- Designed for interior and exterior use
Usage:
- As this is permanent, do a patch test first
- Before varnishing ensure paint surface is fully dry (72 hours-two weeks depending on thickness)
- Ensure your space is well-ventilated and dirt and dust-free
- Place the artwork flat on a surface – always varnish horizontally
- Use long, even strokes, covering the surface top to bottom while moving from one side to the other – don’t go over bits you have missed, but leave to dry and then re-varnish the area
- Apply up to three thin coats, allowing at least three hours of dry time between coats
Avoid:
- Don’t apply in one thick coat, but several thin coats, to avoid drips and cloudiness
- Don’t go back over areas you have already done, as this can cause clouding
- Don’t attempt to remove once applied
