We usually recommend, and only stock, high-quality water-based varnish products, as they are non-toxic, non-yellowing and quick drying. Please note that this new, water-based technology has only really matured in the last few years, and some well-known and widely-sold products are not very durable. They can need re-doing in under a year in some cases, whereas our varnishes are designed to last at least 5 years, some up to 20, subject to conditions and regular maintenance, etc.

Northgate Garage Doors, Inc., does not specifically recommend one particular kind of paint, stain, or varnish over another. But, it seems Watco™ oil and Behr™ spar varnish have become popular brands that many people use with excellent results. Watco and Behr™ products can be found at most home improvements stores.

I do not use any of the varnishes sold in D.I.Y shops and stores. I use a professional matt silk varnish made by Bonakemi called Sprectra. It's water based, has very little odour and gives a beautifull hard wearing finish.

We use an acrylic lacquer which has a satin finish. It is user-friendly, hard-wearing and quick drying. Gloss and matt lacquer can be ordered on request.

Some artists use Galkyds to saturate their colors and unify the surface of their paintings. They think they are using Galkyd as a varnish but technically they are using Galkyd as a colorless glaze layer. This is a fine technique. But a glaze layer is not reversible and varnish is. The glaze layer becomes a permanent part of the painting. Varnishes need to be removable.

No, Galkyds are painting mediums so when you apply Galkyds to oil paintings, they will form a paint layer.

We use our own unique MP765 two-component water-base polyurethane system which is thick and flexible, much more durable and very easy to re-finish. It also has great transparency, giving Duro-design Bamboo flooring floors a deep, natural and vibrant look.

Yes, but I don't recommend it. It is difficult to gauge just how long it will take oil varnish to come to a tack. Subsequently, you may be very limited in how long the surface will remain ready for the stenciling process. Oils varnishes also have a tendency to yellow terribly with time.

Gloss Medium & Varnish provides a buffer coat that protects the paint film against abrasion during future Soluvar removal for cleaning. Soluvar provides final UV varnish protection for the work.

No, it is not suitable for natural timber with a paint/varnish finish. Please use FloorFill repair for timber.

We can stain the new boards to match the existing ones as best as possible, then varnish the complete floor with clear varnish.

Yes this is an ideal tool for removal of varnish on wooden boats. Thick layers of varnish can be removed with a sharp scraper after heating. Thin layers can be removed by heating and buffing with steel wool. You can also utilize diluted linseed oil (80% linseed oil 20% mineral turpentine). Apply the linseed oil and let it soak in for 24 hours or longer. Reheat and buff with steel wool.

If you have a very efficient filtration system that can maintain pristine water quality, you can keep more fish.

You must use sufficient Vaseline for lubrication or it will sting. Coat the suppository and add a dollop to the tip as well.

Your horse should be at least six years old and well broken. Be sure your stock are accustomed to crossing bridges, logs, streams, and rocky areas as these are common during backcountry travel. Remember, the PCT is not a speed trail and that most gaited horses like flat roads.
