Extremely hard, high-gloss 2-component clear varnish with UV filter. EPIFANES POLY-URETHANE Yacht Varnish Karaat Mahogany has the same properties as EPIFANES POLY-URETHANE Clear Varnish (Art.No. 2063-900). Due to its mahogany-colored pigmentation, it is suitable for tinting existing varnish systems or for a reddish-pigmented new build on bare wood. Suitable for interior and exterior use above the waterline in fresh and saltwater environments. The varnish offers very good UV protection, is resistant to water, alcoholic beverages, and mild chemicals, and forms an especially hard, impact-resistant surface with excellent adhesion to solid wood, plywood, and veneers. Due to its excellent flow properties, it is also suitable for high-gloss finishes with a brush.Application: The two components are mixed in a ratio of 2:1 (base:hardener, by weight) and left to stand for 30 minutes (induction time). Application is done with a brush or spray gun at temperatures from 10 °C and a maximum of 75% relative humidity. A "mist coat" is recommended for the first spray application.
