Thixotropic Grain Fillers (VOC Compliant)

Morrells Compliant Thixotropic Grain Fillers are designed to fill the open grain of timbers like mahogany and oak; they are always applied after any base staining and only when the stain is fully dry. Suitable for hand- and spray-application and overcoatable with any Morrells lacquer. The VOC content of this range meets the requirements of the Secretary of States Guidance Note for Wood Coating Processes PG6/33(11) Appendix 2.

Application

Hand

• for maximum efficiency, Morrells thixotropic grain filler should be applied with a piece of Hessian or curtaining
• apply the grain filler liberally to the surface and then rub into the grain of the timber with a circular action

Spray

• the grain filler should be thinned 10% with 4870/000
• spray apply to the timber with a large nozzle combination

Following hand or spray application

• remove excess filler with a clean piece of Hessian or curtaining by rubbing across the grain
• when surface is as clean as possible, lightly wipe along the grain
• when dry, the surface should be lightly sanded with worn fine grit paper along the grain before lacquering

• Pack sizes: 1.7kg & 7kg
• Touch dry: 4 hours minimum @ 18°C
• Overcoat: Leave 24 hours for best results
• Coverage: 40m² per 7 kg dependent upon the size, orientation and surface quality of the item being coated
