- **PU sealer, matt and glossy has to be mixed with the hardener in the ratio 80:20 of base and hardener. The mixture should be allowed to mature for at least 30 minutes and should be used within 4 hours of mixing.
- ++Melamine sealer, matt and glossy has to be mixed with the hardener in the ratio of 90:10 of base and hardener. The mixture is to be allowed to mature for a minimum period of 30 minutes and should be used within 8 hours of mixing. Melamine should not be exposed to ammonia vapour at the time of mixing or application / drying.
- ##Wood Stains gives the required shade to the wooden surface. Wood Stains can be mixed with Melamine, but not with TouchWood or PU wood sealer / finish. Wood Stains should be applied on raw wood before application of the clear coat or over the sealer coat, before the top coat. Wood Stains are for interior use only and will fade if applied on exterior wood. Normal Putty which is used to smoothen out walls cannot be used on wood. The previous coat of finish has to be very thoroughly sanded for the new finish adhesion.
