  • Varnishing Than with Any Other Stage of the Painting Process
    INFO SHEET 301 UPDATED JULY 2016 VA R NISHING We get more questions about varnishing than with any other stage of the painting process. Varnishing should be an almost mechanical process undertaken to give your painting a protective coating with the surface quality you prefer (gloss, satin, etc.) and possibly an enhancement of colour contrast. But, if you leave it till the last moment and use a varnish you are not used to, you can ruin the work you are trying to protect. Anxiety and disappointment can be avoided easily if you do sample pieces using the same materials as the painting and varnish them, not the painting, until you get the effect you wanted. Water-based varnishes are tricky to apply and not removable if you dislike the effect, so we suggest they should only be used by artists who have already tried the above experiment. CHROMA SOLVENT FINISHING VARNISHES We recommend and prefer our Chroma Solvent Finishing Varnishes, because they can be used on all our Chroma paint brands, Atelier Interactive, Jo Sonja’s or Archival Oils. Application of all these varnishes is by brush (a broad house paint brush), and clean up is with mineral spirits. If applying multiple coats, allow 24 hours drying time between applications. Choose from these finishes: Gloss Solvent Finishing Varnish • Apply as is for a full gloss, usually one coat. To reduce gloss add Invisible Varnish to your taste. Try 2 parts varnish to 1 part Invisible Varnish, up to 1:1 for less sheen. NOTE: The new varnishes have an anti-mould additive which is diluted if you add turpentine, so to maintain the mould protection for tropical conditions dilute with Invisible Varnish instead.

  • Weathering Test of Coatings for Wood Panel Boards
    Proceedings of the 51st International Convention of Society of Wood Science and Technology November 10-12, 2008 Concepción, CHILE Weathering Test of Coatings for Wood Panel Boards . Rose Marie M GARAY Depto. Ingeniería de la Madera Universidad de Chile Sta. Rosa 11315,Casilla 9206 Santiago Chile ABSTRACT Protection that coating gives to wood based boards exposed to weathering, depends on multiple factors such as: substratum, application, properties of the product and conditions of weathering. The decision on the utilization of a given protector is based on requirements of use and durability. The evolution through time of the substratum- protector system is studied in long-term experimental weathering test field. Coatings in service are submitted to high and low temperatures, rain effect, solar radiation and wind, which are variable in different climatic zones, causing different effects when dampness is excessive or dryness is extreme. They are formulated for particular end-use conditions and, it is necessary to check their efficiency for the conditions that the manufacturer stipulates. In this work the behaviour in service of pigmented varnish, varnish with filter UV, insecticides and fungicides, paintings and stains, solvent-borne and water-borne, is studied These products were tested to weathering in the Metropolitan Region, Santiago, La Pintana. Tests were made according to the ASTM D D1006-73 standard. Materials for test were oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood. Evaluations are realized until 24 months of weathering. cracks, spots, erosion, discoloration, sheen, shelling, humidity absorption, and swelling in thickness were evaluated. Results indicate that none of the superficial protectors offers a completely efficient protection due to the severity of the exposition which caused visual unsightly effects such as loss of color, sheen, and fluctuations in the evaluated properties.

  • Blazing for Beginners
    Blazing For Beginners Bill Menke, NCTA Great Lakes Regional Trail Coordinator Of the many different types of signs along the North Country NST, blazes are the ―workhorse.‖ They outnumber all other types of signs and are the key sign allowing a hiker to follow the trail. Gathering the Tools: Everyone has favorite tools and methods. Having observed and experimented with many of them, I always return to the following. Assemble a blazing kit based on a small, wooden box with a handle. The Buckeye Trail Association has a good design that includes a properly sized blaze painted on the end of the box. Your RTC may have a limited supply of these boxes on hand but if not, can get you the dimensions. Within the box, carry the following: A screw top plastic peanut butter (or similar) jar, full of blue paint. Using the correct paint is of utmost importance. The correct paint is Nelson Boundary (Brush Type) Paint-Blue— available from NPS. Formulated for durability and adherence, it is long lasting in the outdoor environment. Being oil based, it requires a little more work to remove inevitable splatters from your skin but its’ durability and correct color outweigh any minor inconveniences. Other advantages, over latex paint, are that it can be applied in below freezing temperatures and can be applied during wet weather as long as there isn’t a steady stream of water running down the tree. Citrus solvent or mineral spirits make for easy cleanup. Carry another jar full of Nelson Boundary (Brush Type) White only when you know your work includes blazing a spur trail.

  • The Dirty History of Portland Harbor
    Reprinted from a 1994 publication The Dirty History of Portland Harbor hen scientists began looking closely at the sediments and at W the bottom of Casco Bay beginning in the early 1980s, they confronted a pollution puzzle. Sediments taken from various locations throughout the Bay, and especially in Portland Harbor, held a wide variety of potentially toxic chemicals. Until we know more about how these heavy metals, pesticides and other compounds affect marine life, it’s hard to know what lasting impact the pollution in Casco Bay may have. But it was decided that the more we know about where those pollutants came from, the better chances we will have in preventing future problems. The Casco Bay Estuary Project (now Casco Bay Early industry was limited by natural energy sources, like this tidal mill at Estuary Partnership) commissioned environmental Stroudwater.
