Circa 1850 Woodturner's Jelly

Circa 1850 Woodturner's Jelly is a gelled modified polyurethane varnish. It creates a rich patina and provides a true hand-rubbed finish that protects against heat, water and alcohol. Circa 1850 Woodturner's Jelly dries quickly - free from dust specks and brush marks. It is ideal for any woodturning projects and all wood furniture.

Directions

Circa 1850 Woodturner's Jelly can be applied onto bare, stained or finished wood.

SURFACE PREPARATION: Sand new wood to obtain a smooth, uniform surface. For existing woodwork or furniture, use Circa 1850 Furniture Cleaner to remove dirt and polish. If desired, use Circa 1850 Furniture Stripper, Heavy Body Remover, or Soft•Strip to remove any existing paint or varnish.

APPLICATION: Avoid working in direct sunlight or wind. Do not stir. Apply without dilution. While the lathe is turning, apply a coat of Circa 1850 Woodturner's Jelly with a cheese cloth or other lint-free cloth. Keep turning to remove any excess and until the finish is dry to a light touch. If desired, use a cloth dampened in mineral spirits to prevent tacking. Let dry a minimum of 8 hours. To smooth out the surface between coats, buff lightly with Circa 1850 Finishing Pads or steel wool (0000). Apply a second coat in the same manner as the first. To obtain a finish that is a bit shinier, a third and fourth coat may be applied, always waiting a minimum of 8 hours between coats.

DRY TIME: Allow 24 hours prior to normal use. Avoid heavy use for at least 72 hours. Dry time may be affected by high humidity, temperatures below 20C (68F), or application of thick coats.

COVERAGE: Up to 10m² (100ft²) per 946mL.

CLEAN-UP: Clean up using Klenk's Mineral Spirits, Klenk's Paint Thinner or Circa 1850 Pure Turpentine.
