HEMPEL'S DIAMOND VARNISH 05140

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: HEMPEL'S DIAMOND VARNISH 05140 is a clear, non-yellowing, two-component polyurethane varnish designed for a hard, durable, glossy finish with excellent resistance to weathering, abrasion, and chemicals. It is suitable for both new and previously varnished wood, for interior and exterior use above the waterline, but not recommended for carvel or clinker built wooden hulls.
Physical Constants: The varnish is transparent with a high-gloss finish, containing 50% volume solids. It has a theoretical spreading rate of 12.5 m²/l at 40 microns thickness. The varnish is fully cured in 7 days at 20°C and has a specific gravity of 1 kg/litre. The VOC content is 448 g/l, and it has a flash point of 32°C.
Application Details: The product is mixed in a 2:1 ratio by volume. Application methods include air spray, conventional spray, and brush, with specific fluid tip sizes and air pressures recommended. The pot life is 5 hours at 20°C. The indicated dry film thickness is 40 microns, and the wet film thickness is 90 microns. Overcoat intervals vary based on temperature.
Surface Preparation: Surfaces must be clean, oil-free, and dry. For new wood, sand and treat with a suitable wood treatment. For plywood, seal with a suitable wood sealer. Previously varnished wood should be abraded, cleaned, and dried before application.
Application Conditions: Ensure the surface is above the dew point to avoid condensation, with wood moisture content not exceeding 16%. Avoid direct sunlight during application and ensure adequate ventilation in confined spaces.
Safety and Storage: Handle with care, following all safety labels and data sheets. Store in a cool place, avoiding exposure to air and temperature variances. Containers should be tightly sealed and stored between 5°C and 35°C.
Remarks: Film thickness and thinning may vary based on application conditions. The product is sensitive to moisture, and even small traces of water can reduce pot life and cause defects. Overcoating should be done within specified intervals, and surfaces should be cleaned and abraded if the interval is exceeded.
