Directions

WARNING! Removal of old paint by sanding, scraping or other means may

generate dust or fumes that contain lead. Exposure to lead dust or fumes may

cause brain damage or other adverse health effects, especially in children or

pregnant women. Controlling exposure to lead or other hazardous substances

requires the use of proper protective equipment such as a properly fitted

respirator (NIOSH approved) and proper containment and cleanup. For more

information, call the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (in

US) or contact your local health authority.

1. Surface must be dry and free of paint, wax, grease, polish, old finishes

in poor condition or any foreign matter.

2. Sand to obtain a smooth, uniform surface. Remove all dust with a damp

cloth.

3. If desired, apply stain, such as Minwax® Wood Finish™, to unfinished

interior wood surfaces. Follow directions for application instructions and

dry times.

4. Stir well before and occasionally during use.

5. Apply a thin coat of Helmsman® Spar Urethane using a high quality

natural bristle brush. On unfinished wood, apply sufficient material to

seal open joints, edges and end-grain.

6. Let dry at least four hours, then sand entire surface lightly with very fine sandpaper (220 grit) to ensure an even finish and proper adhesion of additional coats. 7. Apply second coat. If a third coat is desired, repeat Step 6 before applying. Note: For exterior surfaces or for previously unfinished wood, three coats are recommended. 8. After final coat, allow 24 hours before normal use. CLEANUP: For easy clean-up use mineral spirits or paint thinner.
