Resilience
A hard-wearing top coat for lasting defense against scuffs, chips, heat, and UV damage.
Gripseal Resilience is a hard wearing, scuff, chip, heat, and UV-resistant top coat suitable for sealing bar tops, tables, garden furniture, wooden doors, shutters, and picket fences. The unique formulation, featuring 'Pearl Nucleus Technology,' stabilizes outdoor applications, preventing warping and splitting of timber by blocking moisture absorption while allowing the wood to breathe.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY / NON-TOXIC / LEAD FREE / LOW VOC
8-10 m2
COVERAGE
Per litre per coat, depending
on surface porosity.
USES:
Bar Tops, Tables, Garden Furniture, Interior Wooden Floors, Wooden Doors, Shutters, Picket Fences, Cabinetry, Desks, Bookshelves, Outdoor Wooden Structures.
SURFACE POROSITY TEST
Ensure that the surface is free from dust, dirt, grease, oil and or solvents. Check that the surface is sufficiently porous by doing a porosity test.
- Drop a droplet of water onto the surface and time how long it takes to absorb. If the droplet has been absorbed within 20 – 25 seconds, the surface is suffciently porous as the surface porosity would be 6% or greater.
- If the water droplet takes 25-45 seconds to be absorbed, it is recommended that the first coat be diluted with 50% clean water and the second coat undiluted.
- If the water droplet does not absorb within 45 seconds, the surface is not sufficiently porous. An acid wash can be done to increase the porosity by applying a mixture of 1 part pool acid to 9 parts water. Pour the mixture onto the surface and leave for 1 hour. Wash the acid off using water, neutralise, wash off again.
- Redo the porosity test.
APPLICATION
STEP 01:
Ensure that the surface is entirely free of oil, grease, stains and solvents. Sand wood to a smooth surface.
STEP 02:
Use a brush or sponge to apply the first coat of the product diluted 50/50 with clean tap water. Do not apply in direct sunlight.
STEP 03:
Apply a second coat undiluted after a minimum of 30 minutes. And sand lightly between the second and final coat. Apply one further undiluted, thin coat after 30 minutes.
STEP 04:
Clean sponge or brush with clean water directly after application, and allow 12 hours for Resilience to cure completely.
Product Application Notes:
For wood coated with a Gripseal Wood Sealant: as above, but only two thin, even coats need be applied. Sand lightly after the first coat for a smoother finish.
