Capadur LasurGel

Suitable Substrates

Dimensionally unstable, absorbent wooden parts. The substrate must be clean, stable/solid, and free from all substances that may prevent good adhesion. Permissible wood moisture content (WMC) exteriors: 12 % for hardwood and 15 % for softwood, on an average. Basic principles of wood preservation for constructions must be followed. They are a precondition for long-lasting wood preservation with coating materials.

Substrate Preparation

New Wood:
Sand/grind smooth surfaces in fibre direction, clean thoroughly and remove seeping wood contents,
e.g. wood resin/rosin and resin galls (pitch/resin pockets).

Existing Uncoated Wood:
Sand/grind off greyed, weathered surfaces to the stable, solid substrate and clean the surface very thoroughly.

Coated Wood:
Remove existing coatings such as enamels and thick-film wood stain to the stable, absorbent wood and clean thoroughly. Roughen/sand the surface of adherent thin-film wood stain (translucent coatings) and clean thoroughly. Check for compatibility with Capadur LasurGel.

Method of Application

Application:
Capadur LasurGel can be brush applied without stirring.

Surface Coating System

Substrate	Impregnation	Intermediate Coat	Finishing Coat
Dimensionally unstable wooden parts	Capalac Holz-Imprägniergrund	1 - 2 coats of Capadur LasurGel1)	Capadur LasurGel

1)	For light/bright colour shades two coats are necessary to obtain an optimal UV protection. One intermediate coat will normally be sufficient for dark shades (Nut Tree or darker). The transparent product has no UV protection and is preferably used as base material for tinting.

Consumption

Brush application on smooth wooden surfaces:
Approx. 80 - 100 ml/m² per coat, depending on substrate absorbency.
Brush application on semi-rough (sawn) wooden surfaces:
Approx. 200 - 250 ml/m² per coat, depending on substrate absorbency.

Application Conditions

Lower Temperature Limit for Application and Drying:
Min. +5° C for product, substrate and ambient air.
Relative humidity must not exceed 80 %.

Drying/Drying Time

At 20° C and 65 % relative humidity dry and recoatable after 12 hours. The absorbency of wooden substrates influences drying time and gloss level. On wood containing wood ingredients/contents
(e.g. oak wood) the drying time may be longer.
