Application process

Preparation

1. Sand the surface properly. Finish sanding with 100 to 150 grit, the color intensity depends on the sanding method used. When refinishing, you must remove any residue from previous finish  treatments down to bare wood (e.g. varnish, oil, wax, etc.). 
2. Vacuum the surface thoroughly.
3. Clean using Raw Wood Cleaner to eliminate residual wood dust. 
4. Allow the surface to dry completely.

Application

1. Stir the Precolor Easy thoroughly before use and periodically during use.  
2. Apply an even wet coat of Precolor Easy with a brush or applicator pad. Next, work the applied product into the wood using a red applicator pad using a forceful circular motion. As soon the surface starts to show signs of drying, immediately wipe the treated surface with a slightly water-dampened rag in a circular motion and feather out in the direction of the wood grain to even out the application.
3. Allow the surface to dry for approximately 12 hours. The exact drying time depends on the foundation, moistening, temperature, and ventilation. 
4. After drying, break the raised wood fibers with a red applicator pad and vacuum afterward.
5. Apply Oil Plus 2C. Please consult the technical data sheet of the oil for a correct application. Be careful, in combination with Precolor Easy it is best to use a white applicator pad instead of a beige or red one when applying the oil! 

Clean up

1. Clean your tools using water, or Raw Wood Cleaner.
