Product Description

Chemvinyl 275 is a single component vinyl modified nitrocellulose sealer that provides excellent sealing properties and very rapid dry.  Chemvinyl 275 was developed to improve adhesion and moisture resistance. This product has been formulated to meet 275 g/l VOC regulations. Chemvinyl 275 is an easy sanding sealer designed for the professional applicator who requires a rapid dry, easy sanding material. The Chemvinyl 275 shows improved adhesion with various stain systems.

Chemvinyl 275 may be used for many interior wood applications. All nitrocellulose lacquers will yellow over time. This could become an issue if this product is used over white surfaces. This yellowing generally adds a warm patina when applied over most other colors and stains.

Recommended:  Architectural Woodwork Institute Nitrocellulose Lacquer System (8^th Ed).

Uses

Dry times are greatly affected by film build, porosity of substrate, air movement as well as heat and humidity. Temperatures are based on actual board temperature. This may vary depending on length of time for boards to reach these temperatures. Minimum curing temperatures of 64°F/18°C must be maintained throughout the curing cycle to achieve the film integrity as stated in product features.
