DESCRIPTION DESCRIPTION:
AcraClear is a durable, nonyellowing, acrylic based protective log and wood finish formulated for interior use. It is fast drying, nonflammable, and has very little odor. AcraClear beautifies and protects interior wood from common household chemicals, grease, water, scuffing and abrasion. Product helps prevent fine dust penetration and makes cleaning easier. Available in gloss or satin. Its unique formula and clarity make it perfect for use over natural wood and woods stained with water-based and oil-based stains. When applying Saver Systems' AcraClear over light colored oil based stains, slight ambering may occur. Always spot test on an inconspicuous area and let dry to ensure desired results.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Surface preparation: Surfaces must be clean and dry. Remove all wax, dirt, dust and other contaminants. Over New or Bare Wood: Sand lightly with fine sandpaper (not steel wool) and remove all sanding dust. Over Stains and Finishes: Clean surfaces thoroughly. Remove all traces of wax, dirt and old finishes in poor condition. Sand lightly with fine sandpaper and remove all sanding dust. Test AcraClear in an inconspicuous area and let dry to ensure desired results. Do not apply over sanding sealer or material containing silicone or stearate. Room conditions: Open windows and doors for adequate air movement. Apply between 50 degrees Fahrenheit and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

 

APPLICATION:
Do not shake. Do not thin or dilute. Stir well before and occasionally during use. AcraClear appears opaque in container, but dries crystal clear. Product may be applied with a sprayer or a high quality synthetic bristle brush. For best results, apply a very thin first coat in one direction with wood grain. DO NOT OVER BRUSH. Allow to dry at least two hours, then sand with fine sandpaper (220 grit) and remove all dust. Apply next coat. Allow two hours drying time between each coat. (Two to three coats are recommended.) After final coat, surface willbe ready for light handling in four hours.
Drying Time: One to two hours depending on film thickness, temperature and humidity.
Coverage: First coat 200-300 square feet per gallon depending on wood texture and porosity. Each addiitonal coat is 400-500 square feet per gallon.
Clean Up: Clean brushes immediately after use with soap and water.
