Recommended for office and household furniture, kitchen cabinets as well as many other interior wood applications. 

Substrate must be sanded using 120, 150 or 180 grit stearated paper prior to staining or coating. Sealers, if used, should be sanded prior to being coated with 280/320 grit stearated paper. The sealer should be topcoated within four hours of being sanded. An appropriate sealer is Variseal® H/S 431-4602, Chemvinyl 431-1923, Optiseal Fast Dry 431-1941, Variseal 431-4601, Chemvinyl 546-8002 or self-seal. E.S. Lacquer Elite II 431-47XX can not be used on metal, old oil or cellulose lacquers. Stain systems used under acid catalyzed systems should be acid stable. AkzoNobel recommends using 825-90XX, 825-91XX Promatch® C-Mix Stains or 890-85XX Promatch Dye Stains.

Agitate material before use.  Always mix E.S. Lacquer Elite II while adding catalyst and reducers in the recommended mixing ratios to ensure product consistency and consistent gloss.

Apply at 3 – 5 mils wet on sanded or sealed 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 as the previous coat is sanded.

This product can be used as a self sealer, however if a sealer is desired   Optiseal 900 H/S 431-4602 is recommended.

Maximum film build of E.S. Lacquer Elite II should not exceed 4 mils dry.  Maximum film build of total coating system must not exceed 4 mils dry.

Natural ambering or discoloring in the can may occur over time. Although there may be changes of color in the can as the product ages, this will have little to no effect on the product during application. Storing in locations above recommended room temperatures could accelerate ambering.

Contact with metal sources should be avoided.

E. S. Lacquer Elite II must not be polluted with oil, varnish or the like and must not be sanded with steel wool between the coats.  It must not be used and dried at temperatures below 64° F or relative humidity above 65%.  During the curing process, the coating must not be exposed to ammonia vapors.  Ammonia cleaners should not be used for cleaning the finished surface.  This may accelerate discoloration.
