Description

Rustins Yacht Varnish is specially formulated from tung oil to give maximum protection and durability to marine and other external woodwork.

The varnish has excellent adhesion and will not flake or peel when correctly applied, making it ideal for exterior doors and window frames. 

Yacht varnish has good resistance to rain, sunlight, frost, salt and chemically polluted atmospheres. It also has a high degree of flexibility, giving enhanced protection to cracking, checking and loss of adhesion. 

During preparation, surfaces to be varnished must be dry, clean, smooth and free from dust, oil, grease and other contaminants. Cracks can be filled with Rustins Wood Filler. If the wood is open grained, Rustins Grain filler may be used before varnishing.

Apply by brush. The first coat on new wood should be thinned with 25 per cent white spirit and applied with a good quality brush.

Three coats are recommended, but porous end-grain or wood that is badly weathered may need further applications.

Drying time is around 12 hours, depending on temperature and humidity. Additional coats can be applied after 12 hours, depending conditions. Do not use below 10°C or in conditions of high humidity.

Coverage is 13 sq. metres per litre per coat.

Rustins Yacht Varnish is sold in 2.5L and 5L containers.

Full product data sheets and safety data sheets are available on request.
