Teamac Black Tar Varnish
The Black Tar Varnish is a high-performance, synthetic tar varnish specifically formulated for use in industrial, agricultural, and marine environments. Offering a glossy black finish, this varnish is perfect for protecting weathered wood, metal, and other surfaces exposed to harsh conditions. Its non-toxic formula ensures safety during application, while its durable composition guarantees long-lasting protection.
Application Areas
This varnish is versatile and can be applied to a variety of surfaces including barns, farm buildings, roofs, and marine vessels. It's particularly effective in outdoor settings where surfaces are subject to moisture, UV rays, and other environmental factors. The varnish provides a tough, waterproof layer that helps prevent deterioration and prolongs the life of the treated materials.
- Weathered wood: Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, protecting surfaces from rot and decay.
- Metal surfaces: Prevents rust and corrosion, maintaining the structural integrity of metal buildings and equipment.
- Marine applications: Suitable for boats and other marine structures, providing resistance against saltwater and harsh marine environments.
Application Instructions
Before applying the varnish, ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from contaminants. New wood should be sanded to create an adequate key for the varnish, while existing painted surfaces should be cleaned and sanded to ensure proper adhesion. The varnish should be mixed well before use and applied with a brush without thinning. For best results, allow the first coat to dry for at least 8 hours before applying a second coat.
Limitations and Recommendations
This varnish should not be overcoated with conventional solvent-based paints as this will cause black bleeding through the topcoat. It is recommended to use Teamac Black Tar Varnish for all subsequent coats to ensure a consistent finish. The product is not suitable for application in confined spaces without adequate ventilation due to its VOC content. Users should always refer to the downloadable data sheet for more detailed information on safe handling and application.
