Features

Cabot® Quick-Dry Sanding Sealer is uniquely formulated to seal interior bare and stained wood surfaces including doors, furniture, woodwork, cabinets and shelves. The clear, satin finish enhances the natural wood grain.

Coverage

One gallon covers up to 400-500 sq. ft. (37-46 m²) depending upon surface porosity. Do not thin. One quart covers up to 100-125 sq. ft. (9.3-11.6 m²) depending upon surface porosity. Do not thin.

Where to Use

Use under oil-based varnishes or polyurethanes to ensure a smoother topcoat appearance. It dries quickly and can be recoated in just one hour. Do not use on floors.

Preparing Your Surfaces

General: Clean and dry surface thoroughly, removing all dirt, dust, wax and wood marks. Do not use over sealed wood or on floors.
New or Stained Wood: Smooth wood lightly with sandpaper. Stain, if desired, and sand lightly again. Remove sanding dust before finishing.
Painted or Varnished Wood: Remove all paint and varnish in poor condition with sandpaper or paint and varnish remover following manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions. Then, follow new wood instructions.

Application

DO NOT SHAKE! Stir well before use and occasionally during use. Before applying the finish to the entire surface, check effect by testing on an extra piece of the same wood or by applying to a hidden part of the object. Apply a uniform, thin coat using a high quality, clean polyester or natural bristle brush. Two coats are recommended. Brush in even strokes in the direction of the wood grain. Allow the first coat to dry 1 hour and sand lightly with fine sandpaper to remove any grain raise. Remove all sanding dust before applying the second coat. Allow to dry 1 hour before topcoating, if desired. For maximum durability, finish with one or two coats of Cabot Oil-Based Varnish or Polyurethane, following the label instructions.
