About this deal

The key are the terms water borne or water based, generally indicating the product is a cross linking acrylic emulsion. Those who don't know this will often apply "satin" finishes right out of the material at top of a can in which the "satin dust" has settled and then can't figure out why their finish turned out glossy. Because of the unique strengths of polyurethane, this material has been used to replace sleeve bearings, wear plates, sprockets and rollers in many settings.

For smaller parts, and stuff like masts and spars, I will brush it on and let it sit a few minutes before wiping off.The proper practice for producing a satin clear finish is to use a quality gloss coating with UV protection and then flatten the gloss by hand rubbing when it's dry with rottenstone and/or pumice or a fine Scotch-brite pad to obtain a uniform satin finish. It more paints on an overall darker layer so ive already lost the grain on some of my trial efforts. I suspect a likely equivalent Satin Polycrylic (a common north American descriptor) is something like the Rustins quick dry clear varnish range, or alternative water borne varnish products sold in the UK, e. US Baltimore Armed Privateer Schooner Grecian 1812 (prototype) - Vanguard Models - 1:64 'Zulu' fishing boat , Vanguard Models - 1:64 Fifie' fishing boat, Vanguard Models - 1:64 HMS Flirt 1782, Vanguard Models - 1:64.

In fact, I used a low-angle carpenter's chisel to 'holy stone' the deck (gently, as to not compromise the original protective layer of varnish) - and I'm amazed how much stiff came off to reveal the beauty concealed below. I need a high impact/high contrast stain that goes on and comes off fast exactly like the Minwax stuff. If shellac is used, it can be removed by alcohol (if needed), so future cleaning cannot be done with alcohol.Prince holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in film production with a minor in writing from Columbia College Hollywood. Manufacturer-compounded "satin" clear finishes only mimic a quality hand rubbed finish and are quite inferior to the real thing.
