This is probably all old hat to you. But there are a wide range of materials in the system. They are manufactured by ICA in Italy.
Some of them, like polyester, are downright dangerous to use. You need to mix three chemicals in a certain order. Mix them wrong and you get a toxic explosion.
Needless to say, I will not be using this anytime soon. But the other materials are pretty awesome as well.
With the sanding sealer I was using, I had to sand between coats and although it wasn't that hard to sand out, it wasn't exactly easy. With this system, following a strict regimen, I can spray as many coats as needed to fill the grain (and it builds quite fast). The next day, it sands like butter and I can apply any topcoat I prefer. It is also crystal clear so the woods really come alive.
Like I said, this is probably old hat to a pro like you. But for me, it has been a great learning experience and will take my finishing skills to a whole new level.
This all started as a hobby for me. But it has been an incredible learning experience and lessons like these will make it even more enjoyable.
