Boat varnish Epowood

for woodepoxytwo-component

Product overview
Two-component, low-viscosity epoxy formulation designed to impregnate and consolidate wood substrates exposed to surface moisture. Promotes wetting and deep penetration to create a barrier against water ingress. Commonly used for anti-osmosis treatment and restoration of wooden boat hulls. Can be applied on sound gelcoat, after removal of damaged gelcoat, as an anticorrosive primer on metals, or as an adhesive when combined with reinforcing fibres.

Applications and surface preparation
New or restored wood. Surface must be dry, clean and free of dust. Wash with fresh water if necessary and allow to dry. Apply 2–3 coats of Epowood, sanding between coats.
