ENDURO-VAR II®, is a reformulation of our original oil-modified, ambering, water-based urethane topcoat. It replaces the original ENDURO-VAR II® and is made with more than 70% RENEWABLE RESOURCES formulated from sustainable materials that decrease the carbon footprint and is compatible with ALL GF products. The newer environment-friendly formula dries to a lighter amber than the previous formula, is highly water-resistant, and is both sprayable and brushable.
Application Conditions: Recommended 70°F and 50% humidity, out of direct sunlight. Variations in conditions and application technique can significantly affect dry times and coverage. Use GF Accelerator in cool or humid conditions. Use GF Extender in warm or dry conditions. Surface Prep: Always ensure the surface is clean of contaminants and dust. Sanding any surface too smoothly can reduce adhesion and create application issues like orange peel. Raw Wood: Sand with no finer than 220 grit. Ensure any freshly stained or painted surface has dried thoroughly and completely. Pre-finished Wood: Clean using 50/50 mix of denatured alcohol and water with maroon non-woven pad. Sand with fine (220-320) foam sanding pad or maroon non-woven pad. Other Substrates: Not recommended. Sanding Between Coats: Using fine (220-320) foam sanding pad or gray non-woven pad. System Recommendations: Can be used with a sealer. 3-4 total coats of finish are recommended.
