VPL20040
UV-curing white roller enamel, matt (40 gloss)
Single-pack, 100 %-solids UV-curing white enamel for roller-coater lines on flat parts. Levels well in thin films, good chemical/physical and scratch resistance, tolerates temperature changes, high hiding, stable on the line. Can be run on smooth or grooved/knurled application rollers.
- White 40-gloss topcoat on flat furniture panels, flat (unrouted) doors, shelves and carcase sides
- Finishing MDF/particleboard and wall panels on UV roller lines
- Thin-film topcoat over white UV primers
Single-component product: no mixing needed — use as supplied (see application below).

Flat parts only. Stir well before use (TiO2 settles). Adjust viscosity with material temperature, not with solvent. Roller coater only: spray and curtain are not supported (100 % solids, not sprayable viscosity) — use Technocolor's spray-grade UV products for spraying. recommended
Process and compatibility
- Substrate preparation
- Flat panel (MDF, PB, veneer) primed with white UV primer, sanded P240–P320, dust removed.recommended
- Sanding
- not specifiedofficial
- Temperature and humidity
- 20–30 °C, RH ≤ 70 %recommended
- Don'ts
- Do not spray — roller grade only
- Do not thin with solvent (S30 etc.) — a roller line has no flash zone, trapped solvent spoils cure
- Keep out of daylight / UV light — it will start to cure in the can or tray
- Not for profiled parts
Storage
- Storage temperature
- 5–25 °C, dark, closed containerrecommended
Safety: Uncured acrylates are skin sensitisers: nitrile gloves and safety glasses, wash uncured material off skin with soap and water (not solvent). Shield eyes/skin from UV lamp radiation. Cure leftovers in light before disposal.
