Sanding Sealer 500ml
What is sanding sealer?
Sanding Sealer is a shellac based product that helps in sanding, staining and in wax putting wood. Some wood fibres are so resilient that they do not loosen, but ' fold ' and end up in the pores of the wood. That's at first glance not to be seen, but when applying stain or paint they come up again. Consequence: a rough surface that feels or is fine sand. Sanding Sealer you use before or during sanding. It ensures that wood fibres suck, become hard and stand upright. If the sealer is hardened (after a few minutes) you shed these fibers very easily away. Better results in sanding, pickling and waxing or otherwise finish your wood.
Where can you use sanding sealer for?
- To ensure a guaranteed smooth surface when sanding
- To ensure that the stain is pulled evenly into the wood, so that no stains arise
- To ensure that the wood or soft pieces are coloured evenly and not darkened than the rest of the surface (by applying the sanding sealer alone or in a larger dose on the inflated wood)
- As a basis for a wax finish
- As a substrate for a barn paste
NB: This sanding sealer is also possible to use as a pore filler but does not perform optimally.
How do you use sanding sealer?
