NAME:

ENVIROTHANE 200 WHITE TOPCOAT

DESCRIPTION:

Envirolak ELNYW 200XX is an opaque white finish that looks and feels like conventional varnish but offers greater flexibility without harmful solvents or catalysts. Based on a polyurethane dispersion, the coating is high build and suitable for tough environments like kitchens and baths. This product also has excellent levelling and anti- sag properties for vertical applications.

USES:

This product is designed for interior wood finishing applications such as cabinetry, tables, furniture and millwork.

PRODUCT PREPARATION:

Reduction is not required if spraying through a pump, but the product may be reduced with water or ELRX010 Reducer to improve application characeteristics depending on the equipment used. Product should be at room temperature and mixed thoroughly prior to finishing to ensure consistency and gloss.

Note: When used as a 2K product with ELCAT100 the gloss of ELNYW200XX will increase with increasing amounts of the hardener. Using 5% ELCAT100 will increase gloss 4-6 units and using 10% ELCAT100 will increase gloss 8-12 units.
