Gemini® Evo® Eclipse is the newest breakthrough waterborne coating system from Gemini Industries that again raises the bar for wood coatings in North America. Waterborne has never been easier or better. Eclipse is super smooth off the gun and dries fast. Just stir and go. Eclipse is extremely durable right out of the can as one component 1K application. To achieve extra hardness, chemical, or water resistance, the Eclipse system may also be further crosslinked with our EVO Hardener for maximum 2K performance.
Eclipse is a waterborne system with virtually no odor, so it is perfect for on-site finishing.
Eclipse clear topcoat is a premium, technologically advanced waterborne topcoat for interior woodwork. Eclipse dries quickly, has great clarity, and is more user friendly than most low VOC solvent coatings. It exhibits excellent durability as a single pack product, and ECLIPSE’s dual cross-linking technology gives the finisher the ability to further increase durability and chemical resistance by adding an optional hardener.
Typical Uses: Kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, architectural millwork, furniture, and shutters. For wood substrates only. For interior use only.
