HTL61 SM

HTL61 SM waterborne exterior lacquer, 'Grain' (Zerno) tint, 30 gloss

One-pack waterborne acrylic exterior lacquer, semi-matt (30 gloss), factory-tinted 'Grain' on the clear HTL60 SM converter base. Highly elastic, light- and weather-resistant; protects timber from UV, water, dust and dirt. Ready to use — just stir. No harmful solvents, practically odourless, dries fast. Good for new work and for refreshing previously finished surfaces. Spray, brush or roller, 2–3 coats.

    No hardener. Clean (ideally demineralised) water only — never S50/S80. Don't exceed 10 %: less build and durability, weaker tint, sags.

Flush equipment with water before and after use (dealer). The rest is derived: 15–20 cm distance, 50 % overlap, fan fully open; strain; stir thoroughly (tinted — pigment settles); build the 200 g/m² in two cross passes, not one heavy one.

Air spray is the catalog method. Transfer efficiency is up to 40 % (methods page) — allow for overspray.

Synthetic brush for waterborne; lay off along the grain and don't rework a drying edge — tinted lacquer shows laps and blotches.

Roller

Method listed by the dealer ("brush, roller or sprayer"). Short-nap/velour roller for waterborne lacquer; tip off with a brush along the grain (derived).

Substrate preparation · Antiseptic first

Substrate preparation · Restoration
Suitable for new work and for refinishing previously coated surfacesdealer
Substrate preparation · Preparation
Dry, clean, dust-free wood; sand P150–P180 (end-grain P180–P220); degrease resinous spots; old finish — remove anything flaking, scuff the rest at P180–P240 and test adhesion on a patch.recommended

Sanding
After the first coat P240–P280 (raised grain), between later coats P320; don't sand the finish coat.recommended
Temperature and humidity
Apply above +15 °C and below 70 % RHdealer
Don'ts
  • don't apply below +15 °C or above 70 % RH (dealer)
  • don't thin with S50/S80 — water only, max 10 %
  • don't add AC/PC hardeners — it's one-pack (derived)
  • don't finish wet timber, before rain or in direct sun (derived)
  • don't let it freeze (derived)
  • don't apply over oil/wax without stripping (derived)
  • don't lay the full 200 g/m² in one heavy coat on verticals — it sags (derived)
