{"product_id":"varathane-charred-wood-accelerator-quart","title":"Varathane Charred Wood Accelerator, Quart","description":"\u003cp\u003eVarathane Charred Wood Accelerator creates a weathered, rustic brown look on bare or untreated wood. It reacts with the tannins in the wood to replicate natural aging, so every piece comes out one of a kind. It works on all wood types, and the final look varies with the wood. The water-based formula is low odor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReacts with wood tannins for a weathered rustic brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks on all wood types; results vary by species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater-based and low odor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDarken with a second coat after 1 hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 quart\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater-based alkyd emulsion, interior wood only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCoverage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 275 sq ft per quart, depending on wood type and porosity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDry times\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTouch 1 hour, recoat 1-4 hours (70 F, 50% RH)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApply at\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60-90 F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApply with\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSynthetic bristle brush or foam brush\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVOC\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnder 260 g\/L (quart)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManufacturer part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e347105\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much do I need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne quart treats up to 275 sq ft, depending on the wood type and porosity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to apply\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove existing finishes with sandpaper or stripper.
