Varnish RILAK NITRO VARNISH 0.9 L glossy — solvent nitrocellulose clearcoat, 0.9L

RILAK NITRO VARNISH 0.9 L glossy is a solvent-based nitrocellulose clearcoat supplied in a 0.9-litre can, formulated for use as a protective and decorative topcoat on wood, furniture and previously coated surfaces. The gloss finish produces a clear, reflective film that enhances grain and colour while providing surface protection. The formulation prioritises fast drying and ease of application, making it suitable for repairs, restoration work and small-scale coating tasks where quick recoat intervals and visual clarity are required.

Advantages

The varnish forms a hard, transparent film with good adhesion to both bare and previously painted substrates, delivering a glossy appearance and resistance to light wear. Because it is nitrocellulose-based and solvent-thinned, it dries rapidly to touch and allows for faster sanding and recoating compared with many solvent-free systems. The product’s clarity preserves underlying colours and wood grain, and the 0.9 L size is convenient for small jobs and touch-ups.

Suitable for

• Interior wooden furniture and decorative mouldings
• Restoration and repair of varnished or painted surfaces

How to use

Ensure the substrate is clean, dry and free of dust, grease and loose materials. Sand smooth previous finishes where necessary and remove sanding dust before application. Mix or stir the can contents thoroughly; if thinning is required for spray application, use a manufacturer-recommended solvent and follow safe thinning ratios. Apply the varnish by brush, roller or spray in thin, even coats to avoid runs and orange peel. Allow each coat to dry fully before light sanding between coats where a smoother finish is required, then remove dust prior to applying the next coat. Follow local safety instructions when working with solvent-containing products, including adequate ventilation.

Usage recommendations

For best results on interior woodwork, apply two to three thin coats, allowing full dry time between coats and performing light sanding with fine abrasive (e.g., 320–400 grit) to improve intercoat adhesion and final smoothness. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and ensure good ventilation; store the can sealed and away from heat sources or open flame.
