Processing and safety information: Please observe the latest technical information and the material safety data sheets for the stated individual products.
 
Particular instructions:
  • The mother-of-pearl effect can only be achieved on pastel tones.
  • Please apply Pearl lacquer uniformly; different coat thicknesses change the colour tone and excessively high application quantities result in clouding.
  • Our PU Pearl lacquer DU 457-99060 can be mixed with 5 - 10% UNA-COLOR DB 555-(colour tone) to obtain individual colour tones.
  • The lacquer is then applied similar to a Multicoat lacquer; as a basecoat and top coat.
  • Stir well before use!
  • PU lacquers should not be processed and dried at material/room temperatures below 18 °C.
  • PU lacquered surfaces should be freshly sanded before applying the finish coat to avoid adhesion problems.
  • Please conduct a test coating.

This information is purely advisory and is based on the best knowledge available after careful research in line with current state of the art technology. It is not legally binding.
