Product description
Waterborne oil-modified urethane that can be used to formulate single pack wood floor finishes and varnishes. Decovery CQ-8650 urethane crosslinks via air oxidation and requires additional drier to achieve a scuff resistant finish
Applications
Decovery CQ-8650 urethane has superior durability which allows for use on gym floors and high traffic areas. It also exhibits excellent scuff & mar resistance, scratch resistance and chemical resisitance. It enhances the wood tone with low tannin pull and provides a rich wood appearance comparable to that of solventborne OMUs. Decovery CQ-8650 urethane requires the addition of coalescent for good film formation (e.g. PnB for fast dry coatings, DPM/DPnB are also compatible.Propylene Glycol is needed for freeze/thaw stability.). 2% Borchi Oxy-Coat 1101 drier is required for full performance properties.
