Application Instructions
TS-79 Semi-Gloss Clear is useful to clear coat paint finishes that you desire to have a semi-gloss finish that otherwise come in gloss finish only. Allow the paint to be clear-coated to fully cure before applying TS-79. This will prevent the clear coat from cracking due to different cure rates from the paint underneath. For best results allow up to one week.
Make sure to test clear coating over decals before applying to a finished project. Applying clear coat can harm some decals.
Always remember to apply light top coats, let dry and cure for 24 hours, then apply further coats or wet coat if needed.
