HOW TO USE GLOSSY TOUGH COAT

STEP 1

ForΒ this piece, we decided to add new hardware. All the existing holes needed to be filled in with wood filler and drill new holes. It will make it easier when we are adding the fixturesΒ later.

STEP 2

Next, we cleaned our piece using TSP Alternative and gave it a light scuff-sand. Then, we removed excess dust with a lint-free rag. Prepping your piece is always the best way to ensure a long-lasting durable paint job.Β Β 

STEP 3

Renfrew, we love this colour! It’s a bold, radiant, and impactful hue of blue. Teal in tone, our belovedΒ Renfrew BlueΒ adds personality and style to any project. As you can see here! All we needed was two coats ofΒ Renfrew BlueΒ applied to the drawers. It’s always recommended you wait at least 24 hoursΒ between painting before applying theΒ Glossy Top CoatΒ to get the most effective results.

STEP 4

Roll Glossy Tough Coat bottle gently. Do not shake, as it will induce bubbles.

STEP 5

Add 15ml ofΒ ExtenderΒ (1/4 bottle) into half of a 500 ml bottle of theΒ Glossy Tough Coat.

STEP 6

Stir gently with a popsicle stick to avoid making bubbles. This will help to keep the maintain consistency ofΒ the productΒ when appliedΒ evenly over the finished surface area.

STEP 7Β 

Applying two coats ofΒ Glossy Tough CoatΒ with a foam brush or applicator pad all over ensures it seals and finishes properly.Β  Remember to use thin layers and wait 2-4 hours between applying coats. This way you want to avoid any issues with layering techniques as you want to build the shine on the the surface after final application.
