Interlux Sikkens Cetol Marine Light Wood Finish

Interlux Sikkens Cetol Marine Light with Next Wave UV-absorbing technology is a durable translucent protective wood finish for use above the waterline on interior and exterior woods. Next Wave technology is the next generation of Cetol Marine from Sikkens with a unique UV-absorbing package, which is specialty resins and advanced UV absorbers that provide greater protection, durability and longevity. Cetol Marine Light provides a flexible breathable finish along with weather protection for teak and other hard woods all with ease of application and maintenance. It is formulated with Next Wave technology, special alkyd resin and high quality synthetic UV-absorbing pigments which shields wood against damaging UV rays. Cetol Marine Light is identical to the Cetol Marine but formulated with different pigments to produce a lighter amber appearance on wood.

Interlux Sikkens Cetol Marine Wood Finish can be used on exterior and interior hardwood varieties such as teak, mahogany and oak. Cetol products should only be applied above the waterline.

NEW WOOD: Wipe the wood with Interlux® Special Thinner 216 to remove any natural surface oils and contaminants. Allow to dry, sand surfaces with 180-220 (grade) grit paper (always sand along the length of the grain). Remove all sanding residue by vacuuming the surface. Wipe the surface with Interlux Special Thinner 216 and allow to dry completely prior to application of Cetol® Marine Light.

PREVIOUSLY COATED WOOD: Remove all coatings prior to application of Cetol® Marine Light. To remove old coating, either sand with 120-180 (grade) grit paper or use Interlux Interstrip 299E chemical stripper which has been designed for marine use. Once previous coating has been removed, follow instructions for New Exterior/Interior wood.

WEATHERED/OILED WOOD: To ensure good adhesion of Cetol® Marine Light on weathered or previously oiled wood, use Interlux Premium Teak Restorer with a nylon scruffing pad as per instructions on label. Rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. Once complete follow instructions for New Exterior/Interior wood.

APPLICATION INFORMATION: The wood moisture content should be below 18%. Apply liberally using a long-haired bristle brush, smoothly, in the direction of the grain. Keep a wet edge to prevent lap marks and thoroughly saturate end grains where possible. Apply 3 coats of Cetol® Marine Light. Always allow 24 hours drying time in between coats. Sanding between coats is not recommended as this will result in a reduction of dry film thickness. Recommended film thickness must be applied to ensure effective product performance. Make regular inspections to all coated areas. Problem areas should be attended to immediately and maintenance coats should be routinely applied. If the coating is allowed to weather beyond the regular maintenance period of 1 year, returning this surface to excellent condition will be more difficult. Before application of a maintenance coat of Cetol® Marine Light, clean the surface with Interlux All Purpose Boat Soap to remove any surface contaminants as per instructions on label. If blue fungi or mildew are present then they can be treated with Interlux Premium Teak Restorer with a nylon scruffing pad as per instructions on label. Rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. Sand lightly with 220-320 (grade) grit paper. …
