VTL20100
UV-curing gloss roller lacquer, clear (100 gloss)
Single-pack, 100 %-solids clear UV-curing gloss lacquer for roller-coater lines on flat parts. Flows out well in thin films, gives a deep gloss, good chemical/physical, scratch and temperature resistance. Can be run on smooth or grooved/knurled application rollers.
- Clear 100-gloss topcoat on flat furniture panels, shelves, carcase sides and flat doors
- Gloss finishing of veneered panels on UV roller lines
- Thin-film top over clear UV roller primers (VTS20082 → VTS20048/VTS20012 → VTS20032 → VTL20100)

Answers are based on the VTL20100 data and the products it mixes with.
Mixing matrix
- VTL10000Thinner% by weight: 0–5 %catalog
Only when the lacquer runs too heavy for the target coat weight (cold shop, 8 g/m² film). Default is no thinning.
VTL10000 is a UV-reactive diluent (it cures into the film), not a solvent. The manufacturer lists no solvent (S30/S31) for VTL20100; on a roller line without a flash zone solvent would be trapped in the film. More than 5 % lowers hardness and chemical resistance.
- D91Additive% by weight: 3–5 %catalog
When cure is marginal (weak/aged lamps, high line speed, surface stays tacky after the lamps).
D91 = photoinitiator for clear UV coatings (2019 catalog additive table, 3–5 %). Not specified for VTL20100 itself — use only if needed, after a test panel.

- Consumption
- 8–12 g/m²official
- Rollers
- smooth or grooved (knurled) rollerscatalog
- Wet film
- 7–11 µmrecommended
- Coats
- 1–2recommended
- Flash-off
- 0 minrecommended
- Recoat
- Lacquer passes: wet-on-wet (no intermediate cure), then 3 lamps 80–120 Вт @10 m/min. Between primer/filler coats: gel cure 1 lamp @10 m/min; last primer coat full cure 3 lamps, then sand.recommended
- Sanding between coats
- P240–P320 on the fully cured primer before the top lacquer; no sanding between wet-on-wet lacquer passes; P320–P400 scuff if a lacquer coat was fully cured and must be recoatedrecommended
- Unsupported methods
- conventional_spray,curtainrecommended
Flat parts only. Gloss shows every speck and substrate defect — sand the primer P240–P320 and de-dust thoroughly. Control viscosity with material temperature, VTL10000 up to 5 % if needed. 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) primed with clear UV roller primer, cured, sanded P240–P320 and de-dusted.recommended
- Sanding
- not specifiedofficial
- Temperature and humidity
- 20–30 °C material and panels, RH ≤ 70 %recommended
- Don'ts
- Do not spray or curtain-coat — roller grade only
- Do not thin with S30/S31 solvents (not listed by the manufacturer for VTL20100; a roller line has no flash zone) — VTL10000 up to 5 % only
- Keep the tray/can out of daylight and away from UV lamps — it will start to cure
- Not for profiled parts
- Do not apply over a fully cured UV layer without sanding — poor adhesion
Storage
- Storage temperature
- 5–25 °C, dark, closed opaque 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.
