431-70XX Chemguard II Pre-Cat Clear TC

Chemguard II is recommended for office and household furniture, kitchen cabinets, as well as many other interior wood applications.

Wood substrate should be sanded with 120, 150 or 180 grit stearated paper prior to sanding or coating. Sealers should be sanded with 280/320 grit stearated paper prior to topcoating.
The sealer should be topcoated within eight hours of sanding. Appropriate sealers are Chemcraft pre-catalyzed sealers or self-sealing. When recoating, the previous coat of Chemguard II must be sanded and the next coat applied within eight hours. Stain systems under acid containing coatings should be acid stable. The use of Chemcraft 825-90XX, 825-91XX Promatch® C-Mix Stains or 890-85XX Promatch Dye Stains is recommended. Chemguard II cannot be used on metal, old oil or cellulose lacquers.

Agitate material before use. Always mix Chemguard II while adding catalyst and reducers in the recommended mixing ratios. Chemguard II must be agitated thoroughly at all times to ensure product consistency and consistent gloss.

Apply at 3 – 5 mils wet on sanded substrate. Further coats may be applied after complete drying followed by sanding with 280/320 grit stearated paper. The second and subsequent coats must be applied the same day the substrate is sanded. Contact with metal surfaces should be avoided.
Maximum film build of Chemguard II should not exceed 4 mils dry. Maximum film build of total coating system must not exceed 4 mils dry.
