VTL20040
UV-curing roller lacquer for furniture, 40 gloss (clear)
100 %-solids clear UV-curing lacquer for thin-film roller coating of flat furniture parts. Flows out well in thin films and cures to a hard film with excellent chemical/physical resistance, scratch resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. Runs on smooth or grooved (knurled) application rollers.
- Clear 40-gloss topcoat on flat veneered furniture panels
- Topcoat over clear UV sealers on UV roller lines (carcase parts, shelves, sides, flat doors)
- Clear UV coat on flat MDF/PB parts faced with decor film or paper suitable for UV lacquer

- Для VTL20040 не указано. По официальной УФ-схеме для шпона анегри аналогичный матовый вальцовый финиш VTL20030 (8–12 г/м²) отверждается 3 лампами 80–120 Вт/см при 10 м/мин; схема для паркета — то же для VTL20003 (8+8 г/м²). Плёнка прозрачная, поэтому достаточно стандартного набора ртутных ламп. Отверждение проверяйте ногтем или протиркой MEK.

Flat parts only. Control viscosity by material temperature, not solvent. Thin film — it will not hide primer or sanding defects. 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 (veneer, MDF, PB), stained if required, filled with VTS20011, primed with clear UV sealer (2 coats), cured, sanded P240–P320, dust-free.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, S31 etc.) — a roller line has no flash zone
- Keep out of daylight/UV light — it will start curing 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 off skin with soap and water (not solvent). Shield eyes/skin from UV lamp radiation. Cure leftovers in light before disposal.
