The NECESSITY of the BUILD COATS

The build or body coats are the part of a finish that provide moisture resistance, durability and longevity to the coating.

Depth in clear or translucent finishes and richness of coloured coatings depend on these build coats.

For clear coatings, where the structure, grain and tone of the wood are visible, use only gloss for build coats.

Gloss body or build coats maintain clarity and eliminate the foggy, dull or milky look associated when semi-gloss or altered sheens are used to build the body of a finish.
