FAQs

Can I use this on fabric or soft furnishings?

This lacquer spray is designed for hard surfaces like wood, plastic, and metal. It is not recommended for use on fabric or soft furnishings as it can stiffen the material and may not adhere properly.

How long does it take to be fully cured?

The lacquer is touch dry in 15-30 minutes. However, full curing can take 24-48 hours, during which time it's best to avoid heavy handling or exposure to moisture.

Will this yellow over time, especially on white surfaces?

No, Pro-Kleen Clear Lacquer Spray features a non-yellowing formula specifically designed to maintain its clarity and prevent yellowing over time, even on white or light-colored surfaces.

Can I spray this over existing paint?

Yes, you can use it as a sealant over existing paint. Ensure the paint is fully dry and clean before applying the lacquer. It can also be used as a base coat before painting.

What is the coverage rate for one can?

Coverage varies depending on the surface porosity and application thickness. A typical 400ml can will cover approximately 1.5 to 2 square meters with two coats.

Is this suitable for items that will be in contact with food?

This product is not intended for use on surfaces that will come into direct contact with food. It is a protective coating for decorative and functional items.

What type of ventilation is recommended?

It is essential to use this product in a well-ventilated area, preferably outdoors or in a workshop with good airflow and extraction. Wear a suitable respirator mask to avoid inhaling fumes.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray pattern or "spluttering"

Shake the can more vigorously and frequently. Ensure the nozzle is clear; if not, turn the can upside down and spray briefly to clear it. Clean the nozzle with a solvent if necessary.

Lacquer runs or drips

You may be applying the lacquer too thickly or holding the can too close to the surface. Apply in thinner, more even coats from the recommended distance.

Poor adhesion to the surface

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and free from contaminants (dust, grease, wax) before application. A primer may be necessary for certain difficult surfaces.

The finish appears dull instead of glossy

This can happen if the can was not shaken sufficiently, leading to an uneven distribution of gloss agents. Ensure thorough shaking before and during application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides comprehensive protection for a wide range of materials.
  • Effective UV resistance helps prevent color fading.
  • The non-yellowing formula maintains the clarity of the finish.
  • Can be used as both a primer and a sealant.
  • Quick drying time speeds up project workflow.

Cons

  • Requires adequate ventilation during use.
  • Aerosol application may require practice for a perfectly even finish.
  • Not suitable for highly flexible materials that require significant expansion and contraction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material.
  2. For best results, test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes before and occasionally during use.
  4. Apply in a well-ventilated area, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (e.g., gloves, mask).
  5. Hold the can upright, approximately 25-30 cm (10-12 inches) from the surface.
  6. Apply in light, even coats, spraying from side to side with a slight overlap.

Compatibility:

Compatible with wood, ceramic, painted surfaces, plastic, masonry, plaster, and most other common surfaces. Avoid use on highly flexible materials.

Care:

  • Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
  • After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle.
  • Clean up any spills immediately with a suitable solvent before the lacquer dries.
