Proper surface preparation is essential to achieve a high quality finish. Read the MSDS sheet and wear proper protection, which may include gloves, eye protection, and/or other protective devices.

Surface Preparation:
New Wood Surfaces:
Make several passes with the sandpaper, increasing the paper fineness with each pass. The final pass before application on Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish should be with a #150 grit screen pad or sandpaper. Do not use steel wool. Remove dust completely by sweeping, vacuuming and wiping the work surface with a lint free cloth lightly dampened with water. To seal raw wood we recommend Last•n•Last 100S Commercial Grade Waterborne Wood Floor Sealer or Last•n•Last Commercial Grade Oil•n•Water Wood Floor sealer. Avoid using fillers that contain stearate or wax. The work surface and room temperature should be at least 65°F.

Previously Finished Wood Surfaces:
Remove old finish in poor condition. If the old finish is shellac or contains wax or any stearate, regardless of the condition, remove it completely . Then follow surface preparation for New Wood Surfaces. If old finish is still sound and good,, screen the work surface with a #150 screen disc, #180 grit sand paper, maroon pad or similar. Remove dust completely by sweeping, vacuuming and wiping the work surface with a lint free cloth lightly dampened with water. Avoid using fillers that contain stearate or wax. The work surface and room temperature should be at least 65°F. Two to three coats work best on previously finished surfaces.

REMEMBER TO STIR THIS PRODUCT BEFORE AND DURING USE. LET IT STAND FOR 10 MINUTES AFTER STIRRING.

Application:
Apply in well ventilated area by nylon brush, or synthetic waterborne applicator at room temperature and not in direct sunlight. Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish looks milky when applied, but will dry to a clear, beautiful finish. Apply the finish with the grain of the wood, keeping a wet edge as you move across the surface. Screen the work surface in between coats with any of the following #150 screen disc, #180 grit sand paper, maroon pad or similar. Remember to vacuum and tack thoroughly after
screening to remove all dust. Allow minimum of two hours between coats, or until thoroughly dry. Heavy finish application, high humidity or lack of airflow will extend drying times. If waiting longer than 24 hours between coats, sanding is recommended. For superior durability and chemical resistance, we recommend mixing Last•n•Last HDC4 Catalyst (sold separately) into this product @ the ratio of 4 oz. per gallon of of Ultra Clear Finish.

Application over stain:
Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish should adhere well to most stain, but a test for adhesion over brands other than Last•n•Last stain is recommended. Use Last•n•Last Classic Wood Stain following instruction on label. Allow the stain to dry a minimum of 24 hours under good conditions. Make sure the stain is completely dry before applying the finish or sealer.

Drying Time:
When applied according to directions, and in thin coats, Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish should be dry to the touch in 30 minutes. Allow 1 to 2 hours between coats. Heavy finish application, high humidity or lack of airflow will extend drying times. Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish completely cures within 2 weeks. If used as a floor finish with HDC4 catalyst, please allow the finish to be fully cured for area rugs or mats to be put down. The floor is susceptible to scuffing and marring before full cure.

Clean up:
Use water to clean brushes and applicators.

Last•n•Last ULTRA CLEAR Waterborne Wood Finish never needs waxing. We recommend Polycare Floor Cleaner as the safe and effective cleaning product for all polyurethane coated surfaces. It has a unique soap-free, no rinse formula which will not harm polyurethane or varnished wood surfaces.
