Pettit EZ-Wood Sealer 2018, Quart Clear Wood Sealer for Varnish Prep
Pettit EZ-Wood Sealer 2018 is a clear wood sealer formulated for use on bare or sanded wood surfaces prior to varnishing. It is applied after surface sanding to seal the wood grain and create a stable, even base for subsequent coats of varnish, helping the final varnish finish lay down smoothly and adhere properly. This product comes in a quart size and has a clear, liquid form for easy brush or roller application.
In use, EZ-Wood Sealer 2018 is applied in 1 to 2 coats following surface preparation: sanding with 180 to 220-grit sandpaper, cleaning of sanding residue with a tack rag, vacuum, air hose, or Brushing Thinner 120, and allowing the sealer to dry per product requirements before sanding thoroughly with 220-grit sandpaper and moving on to varnish application. The resin-based formula is compatible with wood surfaces and is designed as a preparatory step in a full varnish system rather than a standalone topcoat.
