Old Masters Marine Spar Varnish Application Guide:

Overview:

Old Masters Exterior Oil-Based Spar-Marine Varnish is a durable exterior coating
for use on wood surfaces. It contains ultraviolet absorbers for advanced sun
protection. Use on exterior surfaces such as fences, railings, lawn furniture, doors,
boats and marine surfaces. For interior use on windowsills and door frames for
added ultraviolet protection. DO NOT USE on wooden decks or steps, wood siding, log homes or wood boats below water-line.

As with all exterior clear finishes, this product will not offer unlimited protection
against the elements. Surfaces which receive direct sunlight may have to be recoated annually to maintain gloss and to prevent cracking and peeling.

Supplies Needed:

  • Fine grade sandpaper or nylon sanding pad
  • Tack cloth
  • Stir stick
  • Drop cloth
  • Quality, China bristle brush
  • Mineral spirits or paint thinner
  • Rubber gloves

Surface Preparation:

All surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dirt, wax, grease, glue and other
contaminants or penetration and adhesion will be affected.

  • Bare Wood Surfaces: Sand surface thoroughly with medium grit sandpaper and
    progress to fine grit sandpaper. Always sand in the direction of the wood grain.
    Remove dust with a tack rag.
  • Previously Finished Wood: Surface should be sanded to remove imperfections and gloss, using extra fine sandpaper (220 grit), sanding with the grain. Remove dust with a tack rag.
  • Stained Surfaces: Stain must be thoroughly dry before applying clear finish. Do not sand uncoated stained surface.

Application:

Stir thoroughly before and during application. DO NOT SHAKE. Do not apply in
direct sunlight or areas of extreme air movement.
1. Apply with pure bristle or polyester brush, flat pad or spray.
2. Apply in full, even coats. Flow on with minimum brushing to achieve a glass-like
finish.
3. Spar-Marine Varnish will dry to touch in 4 to 6 hours. Under ideal drying
conditions, allow 8 to 16 hours before recoating. Overnight drying is
recommended.
4.Sand lightly between coats with fine sandpaper (220 grit) to produce a finer
finish and promote adhesion. If sandpaper gums up allow more dry time. Remove
sanding dust.
5. Reapply. For exterior surfaces, a minimum of three coats should be applied.

Note: DO NOT varnish before morning dew has evaporated or two hours before
sunset. Avoid varnishing on damp, humid days. Keep work area as dust free as
possible until finish has thoroughly dried. A slight ambering effect may occur over
light colored surfaces.

Thinning:

Do not thin. Used as packaged.

Clean Up:

Using a cleaning solvent, such as paint thinner or mineral spirits, is recommended for cleanup. The use of paint thinners or mineral spirits may violate VOC compliancy in your area. Check with your local government agencies to ensure proper compliancy.
