The virtually invisible layer is also extremely scratch-resistant thanks to the use of the highest-quality raw materials. Elastic, excellent chemical and abrasion resistance. Full product information can be found here, but for your convenience, please be advised as follows:

  • No Prime coat required
  • Shake product, add hardener to base at a ratio of 10 : 1 and then shake to mix. For mixing smaller quantities, use the LOBATOOL Mixing Container or a scale to weigh out the components.
  • Usable up to 2 hours after mixing.
  • The surface must be sanded properly, wood moisture content max. 12%.
