Semi-Gloss 2001 CrystaLac Water Based Wood Finish

CLP-1600

Item No: CLP-1600
 
 

Product Information

Imagine a super hard water based wood finish, formulated for spraying - right out of the can! No more catalysts to mix, no more wondering if you got the formula right. Just stir and shoot. If that isn’t enough, imagine that the wood finish is water-white-clear. If that sounds too good to be true, you haven’t tried CrystaLac Premium 2001 Finish yet. Specifically designed for musical instrument builders who need a super hard, crystal clear finish (even clearer than our standard Premium 2000 topcoats). Use of a separate sanding sealer is not recommended - Premium 2001 wood finish is self sealing. Use it for your most demanding surfaces - desk tops, pianos, dining room tables - its up to the challenge.

Note: Product is not recommended for brushing.

    Comments about Semi-Gloss 2001 CrystaLac Water Based Wood Finish:

    I've been using Crystlac for several years and love it. Perfect for children's projects and for furniture. I love the ease of application and the easy clean up. Dries quickly so it minimizes dust particles collecting and I can re-coat without waiting for hours and hours. The only con is that it's not readily available locally.

    Comments about Semi-Gloss 2001 CrystaLac Water Based Wood Finish:

    I've always used nitro-cel based lacquer finishes. Very nice to not have an explosion issue while finishing.

    This sprays well at pressures from 25 - 40 PSI and dries very quickly. If your water sep. isn't working up to par, there's no problem while using a water based finish.

    Sands easily between coats just like the old sanding sealers; since it doubles as a sealer and finish coat, one product in stock is a real benefit.

      Comments about Semi-Gloss 2001 CrystaLac Water Based Wood Finish:

      I have been using Crystalac for about 4 years now and haven't found anything that can compare to it. I use it to spray furniture I make and am extremely happy with the results. It dries fast and you can finish a product in a day with little or no rubbing out. I do not use your sealer because it has a tendancy to raise the grain because it is a water based product. After the stain is put on, I spray it with a shellac sealer and then use your product for the rest of the finish. I love cleaning it up with water- quick and easy. It is also easier on your lungs because you don't have all the fumes that you have with other products. I also like that you have put the coating in plastic jugs that are easy to pour out of. I use to transfer everything into gallon milk cartons but now you have saved me that trouble.
