FAQ's:

What is Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer? How is it used?

• Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer acts as its own sealer and can be used alone. However, applying Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer provides added smoothness.
• Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer is formulated to work as a base coat under Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer. It is easy to sand, dries quickly, and seals the wood in just one coat. Once sanded, it provides a smooth, even surface that is ready to be top coated with Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer.

Sanding is not required between coats of Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer. What if I want an ultra-smooth finish? Can I sand if I choose to?

• Usually, sanding between coats of lacquer is unnecessary. You can choose to sand between coats of lacquer if you want a very smooth finish, but you do not have to.

Can Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer be used over Minwax® stains?

• Yes, Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer can be applied over Minwax® Wood Finish™ stains, Minwax® Water Based Stains and Minwax® Gel Stains.

Note: If you choose to stain prior to applying Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer, be careful not to sand the sealer so aggressively that you go through to the stain and damage the color.

What type of applicator works best with Minwax® Brushing Lacquer and Sanding Sealer?

• Brushing lacquers work best with a natural bristle brush. When choosing an applicator, the most important factor is selecting a high quality brush with tapered bristles that will enable you to “flow” the lacquer onto the wood. Avoid over-brushing, which can leave brush marks in the dried film. Do not use a foam brush, since it will dissolve!

Directions:

• Surface must be dry and free of old finished in poor condition, paint, wax, grease, polish, dirt or other foreign matter. Note: Do not apply lacquer over polyurethane finishes
• Sand the wood to obtain a smooth, uniform surface. Remove all dust with cloth dampened with mineral spirits
• Shake the can of Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer vigorously for two minutes. Shake for 10 seconds occasionally during use
• Apply thin coats to avoid runs and sags
• Let dry at least 30 minutes, then sand with 220 grit sandpaper in the direction of the wood’s grain. Remove all sanding dust. Note: You can choose to stain with Minwax® Wood Finish™ stain prior to applying sanding sealer. If you do stain, be careful not to sand through the stain
• Recoat after 30 minutes
• Apply three coats of Minwax® Lacquer according to its label directions. Do not apply polyurethane or other varnishes over Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer.
