In this video we take a look at a method for quickly building a full gloss, clear coat epoxy and varnish system on a wood surface in just three days. We start out by epoxy coating the wood with West System 105 resin and 207 clear hardener. Then we build up a volume on the surface using Epifanes PP. Once the surface is sanded back to be perfectly flat we build the final high gloss, scratch resistant, UV protection topcoat layers using Epifanes Polyurethane clear coat.
Topcoat application in this video is done by spray but I explain how it can also be done with brush and roller technique following a very similar practice. Using these modern materials we learn how to create a full gloss finish on any wood surface with minimal time and preparation, doing the entire process over the course of just 3 days.
Is this process suitable for YOUR application??? Take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rhvc5-cltg&t=110s to see if an epoxy coating system will work for your application.
